In public transport, bus bunching, clumping, convoying, piggybacking or platooning is a phenomenon whereby two or more transit vehicles (such as buses or trains) that were scheduled at regular intervals along a common route instead bunch together and form a platoon. That occurs when the leading vehicles are unable to keep their schedule and fall behind to such an extent that trailing vehicles catch up to them.
