I noticed earlier today that 2538 and 2540 (reserves at Bootle from Runcorn) had been moved to the Arriva North West fleet list (still retaining Bootle as the depot) as trusted editors can only change depots, normal editors can only keep it as the set depot or change the depot to blank, but it appears that nobody (even trusted editors!) can change the operator.

Moving away from that, the other update appears to no longer class buses on the regionwide/seperate route map as being a double decker, containing USB charging, etc.
As a trusted editor, I can only change the operator region within the local area (so only between Wales, North West and Merseyside divisions, you can't change to Arriva Yorkshire for example).

As for the depots, I think only the admin can put in new depots. On my list, I can pick between any depots within the company which it is down as (so a bus in the Merseyside division can only have the depot changed to Bootle, Birkenhead, St Helens, Southport, Speke and Green Lane).


It'd be really good if there was some more explanation on it all rather. It would help everyone out and make the system a bit more transparent.

You could previously change the depot to anything as long as it was was in the Arriva Merseyside/North West or Wales subsidiary, after someone changed multiple buses in the Merseyside fleet to the wrong operator, this presumably was changed.

It appears only a select number are tracking, the rest don't appear to be out, especially the Gemini's

Maybe soon, the Gemini 2's will be added to the list.

Completely misjudged the tracking time, thank you for the correction!

Little Gem's 397 service is now finally showing on live map, just a couple of weeks before it's replaced by the 151. The 397 was the only regular service from Little Gem not showing.
