caused over 21 million worth of damage to the Bee Line bus company depot in Newbury, Berkshire.

The blaze, which started at 3am on Sunday morning, was spotted by employee Tony Richardson. He helped his neighbour Kenneth Trott, who used to work for the company, to rescue 15 vehicles.

Manager Richard Fancutt paid tribute to their courage: "it is because of their brave action that so many of our vehicles are available this week," he said.

Police are linking the fire to two other arson attacks in the town, but say they have no positive leads yet.

The company is running a full service, but no back-up vehicles are available.
