I'm sure others must be like this; 4250 left Bearwood today on the 48A

The 48A's display West Brom-bound alternates between West Bromwich, and Bearwood! The 'Bearwood' display shows 'Bearwood, via Warley'

6103 wasn't tracking this morning

6103 wasn't tracking this morning

Tracking perfectly, column 8 is the percentage vehicle tracked for, on journies to Birmingham drivers will change the journey number a few stops before Colmore Row as some passengers want to get on on Great Charles Street and Snow Hill, so never show 100%

Did it have it switched off prior to 8:35?? I caught it on 8:06 from Halesowen and it wasn't tracking then- but may have been fault with app

When you put DEAD into the ticket machine, does that mean the bus isn't tracking?

6750 missing its halo.

[Sh4318]

4300's rear destination display (which wasn't working anyway), has been removed

4300 has a (working) rear dot matrix display again, it displays numbers like most of the 46** Gemini's do - also had its megarear removed

Is this off a website?

Is this off a website?

It's likely some proprietary software for the tracking system that NXWM uses, so you can't access it publicly.
Since the tracking data, for when the next bus is due, is available publicly, it's probably possible for someone to write a program/website that takes this and works out how early/late each bus is by comparing it to the timetable.

2219 is now missing its rear window branding.
