Is this right?

Diamond 21210 on the 1427 326 from Bloxwich only got as far as Dudleys Fields & looks like its 'going home' to Smethwick?

54 timetable isn't showing correctly on bus times.
54 - Perry Barr - Hamstead – Diamond Bus – bustimes.org

Showing Sunday journeys as terminating at Handsworth Wood. Also showing weekday journey duplications, and old route into Perry Barr via Heathfield Road.

All bar three of Diamond Bus timetables have disappeared from the website. Strangely though individual buses are tracking on the general bus map.

I don't understand why bus times does this; whatever platform or software it operates on is obviously no bloody good...

You obviously have no clue how it works then. The problem is extremely unlikely to be to do with Bustimes

I admit I don't but it seems to happen on a very regular basis

There is nothing wrong with BusTimes as a platform, any issues such as these will be down to the data feeds that BusTimes uses.

The old saying is "garbage in, garbage out" - if there are errors, mistakes or omissions in the data feeds, then it is not BusTimes' fault if it shows them.
