4817, 4819, 4844 haven't tracked since November 17th.

4844 has been defective in the garage since 9/11
4819 has been defective in the garage since 14/11
4817 has been defective in the garage since 16/11

which explains their lack of tracking

Which services have you seen them on?
Haven't seen them recently. The last time I've seen one was the 7th of November.

As has been pointed out numerous times already, the point of this topic is to inform of "vehicles seen in service but not showing on BusTimes"

Buses can stop tracking on BusTimes for various reasons, including being out of service or unused.

What Tony is looking for help with is vehicles that are actually out and about in active service, but are not tracking due to equipment or system failures, ie an actual 'defect'.

So in a nutshell, if you physically see a bus in active service on a route, and it is not showing up on BusTimes, then please feel free to report it here in this topic.


My locals:
2 - Birmingham to Maypole | 3 - Birmingham to Yardley Wood
11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath

4870 has stopped tracking since Monday. Saw it on the X51 earlier at 15:40 off Walsall, and it wasn't showing on bustimes.org at all.

4778 appears to track, although does so without a service number

Local Routes:
NXWM 9, 50, 59, 69, CRDR 70, 71, DIAM 57, TEXP 65
ARHE 8, FESX 68, 86, 174, 175, S8

I love Walsall buses

1852 seen on the 4H but tracking with no route number past couple of days

Not a vehicle that isn't tracking on bustimes.org but rather a vehicle that has finally appeared after a long time...3304 has started tracking again today after many, many months.

7537 is one to add to the list - was on the 3 this morning though it wasn't showing on BusTimes nor on the NXBus app (almost missed it as it actually arrived on time!)
