That bus must have been packed.

It's starting to look like the tube explosions happened first and then as people were moved to the buses, at least the explosion above happened.

The photo above is the same one explosion referred to as "Taverstock Square".

...it wasn't. Eyewitnesses said it was a tourist bus, but it sure dosen't look like it (the ones converted to tourist purposes are generally older).

Apparently only one death associated with that incident so far.

I'm seeing that too now. Maybe lucky on that one.

Bad news as BBC 5 radio is saying a doctor who was on the scene says 10 fatalities... still unconfirmed though.

Not sure if it was the same bus, but BBC World just said it was no 30 from Hackney to Marble Arch, exploded about 9.45am so fortunately after the rush hour.
