I presume you need expert computer knowledge to generate a table like you have from the xml file - or is there an easy way?

No worries, yeah it's quite difficult if you don't know what your doing. I just used PHP and converted to JSON (which is like a readable list) then from that you can just pull bits out then you can just generate a table using that information. I wish they'd output it as JSON as it's much more useful nowadays rather than XML and would be much more usable for anyone as it's readable.

It's how BusTimes works pretty much, it's the same for live feeds which show tracking data etc.

Oh btw I forgot to say I'm not sure what thread it was and I'm not hunting it down but the reason the app is always wrong is because the thresholds for going busy etc are way too high. For a 40 seat capacity bus I believe it's set at 52 and 64 or something like that atm. It's why it's always quiet.
