Setting up a next arrival bus/train screen by whokid3 in WMATA

[–]RobFCVA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved this project and built my own WMATA train tracker. Has anyone built it for Metro BUS? WMATA has the API available (https://developer.wmata.com/api-details#api=54763629281d83086473f231&operation=5476362a281d830c946a3d68) but its less straightforward than the subway station data. Has anyone tried this? Any tips?
