As a ‘by-product of live bus tracking’, the BusTimes website also presents something of a ‘fleet list’ for individual bus operators, with the caveat being that it is essentially a list of ‘ticket machines’.
- Ticket machines IDs sometimes don’t correspond with the actual vehicles they’re attached to. (Equipment gets swapped between vehicles, etc.)
- Vehicles don’t always track all the time. If a journey isn’t listed, it doesn’t necessarily mean it didn’t operate.
Bus Lists On The Web
What’s often known as ‘BLOTW’.
What’s in the lists?
- Body and Chassis produced by UK/Irish Manufacturers
- Body and Chassis produced by non UK/Irish Manufacturers or not built in the UK/Ireland normally only include UK/Ireland deliveries
- There are exceptions where a small number of an otherwise UK/Ireland only production series have been delivered to other countries
- (normally right hand drive vehicles delivered to Australia, New Zealand, Cyprus, Malta etc (such as Kassbohrer and Mercedes) or where a series is primarily sold in the UK (such as Volvo B6BLE and B9TL))
- Details are listed at time of delivery/registration and subsequent changes aren’t recorded (with a few exceptions)
