    Investigations continue into how a public bus was engulfed in flames in Auckland's Epsom last night

    Investigations continue into how a public bus was engulfed in flames in Auckland's Epsom last night


    Two fire crews put out the bus fire, which started after six on the corner of The Drive and Empire Road.

    An Auckland Transport spokesperson says the fire broke out on the 295 bus from the City Centre to Ellerslie.

    They say the bus driver did a fantastic job getting everyone off the bus quickly, including someone with accessibility challenges, before the fire engulfed the rest of the vehicle.
