I'm gonna get roasted for this but is there a reason why all double deckers pre 2010 still have the TWM logo etched on the stair window? Considering that the seat moquettes have been changed, is it too expensive to get new windows or is it a nostalgia thing?

4487 out on the X4 with a non working front display and no paper numbers, something NX never do.

With your sarcasm, you do realise these do actually fail on the road some times and a) the driver does not know it is not displaying, b) they are not going to throw passengers off part route if it does fail, or possibly even that you saw it when the driver had just tried to change it, so was blank in the changing cycle.

813's offside West Midlands Bus logo has the 'West Midlands' part from the NXWM logo, set in Neo Sans, rather than using the TfWM style one in Circular. It's also missing the TfWM logo.
