These bus fires. This may be the second New Flyer to hit the scrapyard.

I wouldn't say it is going to the scrap yard just yet. With most of the damage being in the rear and the parts needed to fix it being readily available, they should be able to fix it. 5943 is currently down after a similar fire (albeit not as bad).

I'd say that bus looks salvageable.
