The New Forest tour commenced at the beginning of July, and the NFT Green buses only reappeared on the Morebus bustimes site, once they had taken up duty on the NFT, while the Red and Blue appeared throughout the winter and spring period. Today, 1826 came out of service on the Blue route and was replaced by Bluestar 1533 which took up service at about 1455 at Brockenhurst, but tracking only started showing at 1647 when it was at Buckland near Lymington, and now appears to be working normally. Maybe a Morebus issue?
Despite any glitches, I find the site invaluable. I wrongly assumed that most Morebus (and former Yellows) basically stayed on the same route, and there have been times when I wanted to photograph a certain bus, and it didn't turn up as I expected, being unaware that it had changed routes.
Something I’ve always done when hunting specific buses and making use of bustimes is to,
-Take one of the journeys said bus has already operated today
-Check for that journey yesterday on the vehicles page of the corresponding route
-Screenshot the entire list of journeys said bus operated yesterday, as normally the next day will be identical.
Apologies this may sound obvious to most people. Certainly a good way to expect interworking between different routes.
