MontanaMatt: Well that's what's left of my bus. π’ I did get a little more info. My buddy Ralph was driving the bus in Pennsylvania.... with a band and crew on board. Not sure who it was. But Ralph got the bus parked on the shoulder and got everybody out of the bus with no injuries. Pretty much a band and crew standing on the side of the road nearly naked in the middle of the night... and I'm damn sure they were more than happy to be there! Scary shit right there!
MontanaMatt: They don't know exactly what started it yet.... But they are sure it started above the back lounge. That tells me it was either one of the roof air units or lighting in the back lounge. That really isn't anything else it could be. And another driver found video of the bus burning on the side of the road. I couldn't make myself watch all of that. I did learn that once Ralph got everybody off the bus he jumped back in the drivers seat and sent 2 guys to disconnect the trailer from the bus and he pulled it away ... Saving all of their gear that was in the trailer.... And they got most of their gear out from under the bus before it got too hot to get close. So it sure could have been way worse. And Ralph sure earned his current hero status! π
