BusTimes and TrainTimes use different API providers, and the API
provider for BusTimes stopped working so I'm looking for a new BusTimes
API provider.

I found one for TrainTimes that is why it is at version 2. whilst
BusTimes is at version 1. when I find a new bus time table provider then
BusTimes will move to version 2
