3 weekends in a row without anything coming back to FMR? This is making me super impatient, let's hope it's worth the wait.
Well, today may be Monday but it is also Memorial Day so most would consider this day to still be part of the weekend, but let's hope something comes back in the next day or 2.

In the meantime, 7149 and 7151 are now online, as well as 2676

Just curious about how effective searching the NextBus XML data is for finding active vehicles on the road - I just scanned a bunch and the refresh numbers on most was kind of high and more were showing as unassigned to any route than I would expect in PM rush. My experience in accessing this data from other systems is that the refresh rate should yield much lower numbers. Thanks.

We can now add 2650 to that list.

Like I said before, 2678 has been offline ever since it first began rehab back in early March. Since you noticed 2670 at Bladensburg last week, and seeing how 5320 is back in service despite being offline, I'm gonna assume that 2678 is back at Four Mile Run, in that same manner. Also, I don't know if you noticed, but 3003 is back in service.

Was this from today? If so, then it makes sense, since today's a holiday, and Metro's operating on a Sunday schedule. Try it again tomorrow, and everything should be back to normal.

My bad - I forgot about that as I had to work! Some of the refresh numbers look a bit higher than I'm used to with other NextBus systems providing open data but it does seem more like what I would expect. Thanks for this information as I didn't know this existed until now.

So far, nothing has replaced it. We should probably keep an eye on 2640, though.
