What model of bus was involved? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Starwarsbv (talk • contribs) 06:36, 20 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Early sources said the make was Ikarus bus but later sources (which are presumably more accurate) said a "29-year-old German-built Setra bus". I have not seen the specific model named in any reporting on this fire. --LukeSurl ^{t c} 12:19, 20 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• The ministry seems to reckon it's an Ikarus however searching "Kazakhstan setra" we get this image - If you compare this image with this image both vehicles are identical, Also searching "Kazakhstan ikarus" brings up buses not coaches whereas the former search brings up all coaches, The charred front of the coach also more or less matches that of an older Setra so personally I would say it is indeed a Setra and not an Ikarus as all these news sources claim. –Davey2010^Talk 16:46, 25 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
