Over on the far east part of Stuttgart, an explosion occurred last night at the bus depot on Elmer Strasse.
It would appear from news video from this morning.....most of the bus station burned down. Cause? Unknown.
Buses gone as well? Twenty of them burned in the episode.
The fact that an E-Bus (battery bus) was in the station at the time....apparently recharging? Well....so far, there is no connection to that in the fire.
At some point on one of the morning news pieces....journalists hinted that the whole remaining structure was pretty close to falling....nothing was going to survive the fire.
Injured? Number remains at six presently.
Update: 1 Oct, witnesses report the fire/explosion starting on the roof of one bus.....that's where the E-bus/diesel hybrid batteries are usually 'laying'.
