Once a widget has been added to the Home screen, if you don't want it on the main Home screen, tap and hold down on it, then drag it to move (slide) it into any position on the main Home screen, or on any secondary Home screen.

>> To modify a widget's contents

The widget you have added will be either a Chartwheel type or a Transits Listing type, but it may not be showing the actual chart or transit listing you want to see in your widget. If so you will need to edit your widget.
