I think the tracking system might have an outage...

NXWM's own system is working fine, so it's something  wrong with either BODS or Bustimes

Have you reported to bustimes if it can get it fixed so it can track properly?

There wouldn't be much point as it isn't a bustimes issue, LVF has been experiencing the same issue with WM Vehicles since 18:28 yesterday.
Doesn't listen to people with more than ten toes.

Correct, there is nothing wrong with BusTimes and there is nothing they can do about this.

The issue is that NX West Midlands' data feed is currently showing as 'Inactive' in BODS:
https://data.bus-data.dft.gov.uk/avl/dataset/3338/

The reason for this I do not know, there will be some 'technical issue' somewhere which I am sure is being worked on.
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

The lack of any hydrogens showing on 51 was mildly irritating but the complete lack of any NXWM buses on Bustimes is a real bu**er for us armchair enthusiasts (in my case unless I'm in the region - which is not often).

I did have a quick look at Stagecoach Midlands wondering if the sudden turn off had anything to do with the Stagecoach takeover but theirs are all there.

One positive thing - you can see where all the Diamondbuses are at a glance - and how they seem to bunch on the 31/32 and 4 services - must be down to the Christmas shopping traffic congestion  ;D"

Is tracking down for NX?
Only on the bus times website. The tracking's still working hence they still track on the RTI screens and on the app.
Local Routes
94/95, 11A/11C, 28.

It's down on RVF to as its a BODS issue
