A bus service has been interrupted after steam started billowing out of the engine vent.

Two fire engines were at the scene on West Street, Ashford, where the Stagecoach bus was stationary.

Firefighters were called just after 12.30pm.

Fire crews open the back of the Stagecoach bus to assess the cause. (10197735)

A Stagecoach spokesman said: "The bus involved had a water leak onto its radiator which produced an impressive amount of steam.

"A member of the public called the fire service who attended but have now stood down.
