Sorry if my post above looks flippant, and even-more stupid than my other ones. - I think it's tragic that with all the other problems a bus operator has to contend with, - very expensive, almost new vehicles are breaking-down ! - it's the last thing that FMR needs. It's imperative for Wrightbus get...

Very "En-saddening !"

"Congratulations old chap"

Seems a pretty sensible idea to be honest. Yes; it's much more obvious to members of the public (or will-be once they get to recognise it) - that the bus that's "passing-them-by" is not in service. - I don't know what the rear route No. display is now set-up to do, but it would be a good ...
