Since tracking went down you can't locate your bus if its coming off a dead run.

You used to be also be see when e.g a 61 was running dead to Murton, or X21 to Durham/Gateshead/Auckland's. 

But now you can't, quite strange

Looks like Bus Times is working from the companies timetable data these days from the website download and not the BODS feed.

Tracking seems to be acting up. 

On a few buses are tracking.

Literally nothing is tracking

Ticketer is down - presumably affects multiple operators.

This outage also affects the operators apps, GNE's at least just shows the scheduled departure times whilst the Arriva app is defaulting to showing cancelled on most journeys. GNE have also put a notice on their website about it.

Why is ticketer down but random buses on routes are tracking 

There is a X66/52/50 tracking today, yesterday there was a 39B/X66 and two random 56s.

Hopefully its fixed by Monday

Yeah, I noticed the 17 in Stockton was also tracking when husband was out and baffled at the lack of local buses on the bus times map. Obviously either an intermittent fault or some vehicles haven't refreshed (couldn't tell from a static screen shot)

5503, 5448 and 6376 are the only ones appearing when I’ve just looked now.

"By Monday" is a bit optimistic

Yeah I know, it seems Ticketer is down every other week.

Husband said the BODS API updated a couple of days ago so wonders if the issue is related to that.

I think that’s what happened last time when BusTimes changed feed from a certain system to the one GNE uses, which doesn't show buses running dead.

I believe that bustimes changed its data source due to service missing from the GNE Bods data when the July changes took place.

Tracking is working again.

Does anyone know why Live Tracking isn't working on GNE, on Arriva it is
