I've not been able to do this until now, but thanks to someone on the railforums website, I now can ( - also, I recently started to use the CHROME browser).
Click on the individual routes listed ( - may need to zoom in a bit), and click on an animated bus to see what fleet number it is !
Any additional info about getting the best from the system will be welcome !
-- I'm going to get a lot of fun out of this ! -- if (or when) it is reliable enough, we will be able to construct our own, up-to-date bus graphs !
So I guess you can tell that 32067 is on it's way back from Catshill on a 144a at the moment !
I've been watching this site grow for many months now, back in early November I noticed a few bus types were added to some Midland Classic vehicles. Ever since I have watched it grow and have been waiting for First Worcestershire, and hopefully the rest of NXWM to be added soon, so pretty much know all the tips and tricks I was going to tell all of you on here but thought I wouldn't ruin the surprise, especially for DD12 to track double deckers If you look on https://bustimes.org/vehicles you can see everything tracking in the country, look at the scale of the number of buses on there and it is mind blowing! With it being a new system, sometimes buses won't show on a route as you have clocked onto with the 32 above - zoom into Worcester and just scan about where buses are, you should be able to work any others out, they may be tracking, but not 'logged onto a route'. Some of these will be the ones shown on the First Worcester 'fleet list' you have linked - note the ones with a time, but no route, that's why I refer to above. You can also look on the map, and click onto route numbers to show data of which buses have operated which journeys.
And! , you can look at history of where a bus has worked - click on fleetnumber from the List you linked, and use the drop down date tab, to see what has it done on the last few days.
As I am writing this, 32066 is working a 144 to BIRMINGHAM! Is this allowed with it being a Euro 2/3?
Great stuff Birmingham_Bus thank you !
I believe "anything" can be used until 1st January 2020, but First should want to use only euro 6 buses as they have had, or are receiving a share of £ for converting the 12 green Volvos to euro 6 for the 144.
Another problem with 32066 (and 67) is that the front destination screen needs new light bulbs or tubes -- -- a few times this winter (and last winter), I have not been sure there is a DD approaching until the last moment (dim upper deck lighting and dirty front windows compound this effect). -- -- This is the opposite of the "Salt Road" marketing image !
If someone at a bus stop doesn't see that it's their bus approaching, they might not stick their hand out in time, and the driver might sail past them !!
Looking at today's history for 32066 (which is a VERY messy and muddled "account") I would guess that it did the 17.30 short 144 from Worcester to Droitwich only.
Right at this moment, a very interesting deployment is 35159 on the X50 ! (apparently).
I don't think I've ever seen a StreetDeck on the X50, - only the older DDs.
