This may seem like a silly question but what does it mean when a bus is a reserve?

It means that while not completely withdrawn, it is not intended to be used in the immediate future. Its like what happens when a ship is placed into reserve: it is left in such a condition that only minimal work would be required to bring the vessel (or bus this case) to operational readiness.

Appears there is a problem with bustimes at the moment, wonder if anyone else is getting this, was working fine a few minutes ago!

Unfortunately Bustimes is not looking hopeful for its future, newest addition shows that we cannot see livery names anymore. Sad really.

All because vegs were arguing over the livery names on the discord and then site edits, so instead of strict moderation they just removed the livery names 🤦�♂️

I even get people arguing my edits are wrong when they are official info (previous registrations is the biggest example).

All NX vehicles stopped tracking at 09:24 It appears one of the companies involved in the link has a major IT failure as their websites are all down as well
