There were quite a few websites that were down this morning, including my own, and I don't use Cloudflare.

I understand there have been a number of big DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attacks on numerous servers and datacentres in recent weeks.

I've noticed quite a few NX Buses have tracked as T1 seems to only be when their in the depots, today there's WN and YW buses tracking as T1.

Does any one know what it means

I don't know for certain, so don't take this as an authoritative answer, but I would hazard a guess that as this happens when a vehicle is at a depot that it is either some kind of 'testing' or 'training' mode being used to train new drivers on how to use the Init system.

If the person is on here who keeps altering vehicles on bustimes to delete the names on repaints can they stop please? (user 1911)

They have deleted the names on both 2002 & 2229 saying name removed on repaint, but they don't know this, as both vehicles will have their names re-applied by the paintshop before release back to garage.

Why isn't certain information 'locked' to stop people messing about?

Due to the nature of open sourcing. Tony (or someone else at NX) would have to prove to Bustimes that they were employees, and I don't think Bustimes want to do all the verification work which that would enable.

All PB buses aren't showing their route destinations.

It's not just PB's buses.

There must be some kind of data feed error, as the website also isn't showing any timetables for NX Bus services.

Most of the timetables are the ones due to start on 24th July for some reason

Summer holiday timetables

Yes, they are. My point was they have been loaded to the bustimes website six days before they come in to force displacing the current timetables
