Tracking Which Physical WMATA Buses I've Ridden - And You Can Too!

Feb 2026

More Buses

I found this crazy (canadian???) forum that has compiled a table of every single physical WMATA bus. Using this data, I made a spreadsheet that lets me enter the 4 digit number of each bus I ride and the sheet returns data about the bus. The sheet also keeps track of how many times I've ridden each bus, which is fascinating to me.

Use the spreadsheet!: Click here.

The spreadsheet is read only, so just make a copy for yourself and use that!

Instructions

Scroll right until you see the diary
Type the bus number in the "Bus #" column, and the data about the bus will automatically populate
You can fill in more information about your trip if you want (this bus would not actually ever run on the D50)
Scroll further right to see how many times you've ridden this bus, as well as statistics about all of your rides
If you use all the pre-made slots, create more by clicking the dot on the bottom right of the last cell in the "build date" column and drag it down for as many more rows as you want.

My Statistics

If you're curious. I've been keeping track since Feb 2026. Scroll right if on mobile!
