Well NX are running the rail reps from PB, BC and WN using a variety of Platinum's, Trident's and Enviro 400's (although WN did put 2014(?) on standby the other day).

The Green Bus are also operating on there using a variety of Trident's (Plaxton President and ALX400's). But I did not see any of their ex NXWM President's on there at all...

Looking at the allocation sheet it should be
4 x BC; 3 x WN & 4 x Green Bus this morning
2 x BC; 1 x WN; 1 x WB & 5 x Green Bus for the afternoon book ons

I wish we had  TWM LVF lol

[markcf83]

That would be a good idea.

Every company should have open data feeds, so some one could do These kind of LVF things.

Why? Probably 99.9% of passengers couldn't give a stuff which bus was on which route, as long as it turned up. It's only enthusiasts who care and how many of them actually travel regularly on the bus? I don't, yes I am an enthusiast but I commute by train and occasionally use the bus at weekends.

[Kevin2017]

Well the data is their, why not use it? where in the 21st centenary, god damn it!

Make use of what is out their etc
