Mobile Countdown
As everyone will know, TfL launched the beta version of the Mobile Countdown service last month. This allows everyone to find out when their bus is due by using an online version or by texting a 5-digit number.
As part of this, TfL has given each stop a unique 5-digit number. But wait a second - how does anyone know what that number is? Well, TfL have started attaching a plate to each bus stop flag with it's respective number, and provided details on what it's for. However, as you can see from the images, there is no mention of the online version - it only has details about how to get the information by text.
This is what it looks like:
Why not find out what this stop is, by going to the Countdown Website and typing in the 5-digit number.
