transit_buses
Where the buses actually are near a point right now — line, where each is heading and how far away, nearest first. England, from the Bus Open Data Service. This is position rather than prediction: it says what is moving, not when it reaches you
Free. This one only touches this instance's own storage, so there is nothing to charge for.
Runs on Transit — Public transport: stops near you, what is due, and which lines are down.
