Most of the population of Wolverhampton seems to have come out to witness the aftermath of what looks all-in-all to be a fairly minor, if somewhat inexplicable, collision. Ironic that from 1961 Guy Motors was owned by Jaguar Cars Ltd until it all sank into the morass of British Leyland. I don't know who to feel most sorry for - the passengers still on board who won't be getting to Willenhall any time soon; the hapless bus driver who in the course of some avoiding action has nearly ended up on the pavement; or the owner of the Austin Cambridge whose sills and front wings are rotting away in the manner typical of mass-produced cars of the period.
In addition to the vehicles St James Square has also disappeared, a victim of urban redevelopment.
