I'm unsure how reliable the Bus Times website is, however:

The following vehicles seem to have been VOR for over two weeks?

12068

22346

27506

27508

28010

28031

The following vehicles appear to have been VOR for a long time as there are no "last seen" dates, are these being repaired?

39711

36479

22508 & 22069 appear to have returned to service at Slatyford - unless the ticket machines have been swapped and have not been reconfigured?

Are ADL E300s 27506-10 staying at Stockton once all of the E200MMCs enter service, as two appear to be VOR as per above?

Take EVERYTHING you read on BusTimes with a pinch of salt!

In the last few days I've noted the following with just one (major) operator:

- One vehicle reporting as a different vehicle

- A batch of vehicles not tracking since date X when they're all out running

- Vehicles reporting as being on a duty, then not tracking at all until the terminating point

- Vehicles tracking when they aren't part of the fleet

- Vehicles operating without tracking at all, or even being listed

There's probably more!

In short, it's a very useful, and quite amazing, tool, but you need to apply a certain amount of common sense, local knowledge, and some cynicism, when using it
