Can someone look at 4665s front display as it's really dark and not clear until the bus is in front of you

There was a time a month or so back where the front display of 4665 didn't show anything whatsoever for a few days so it does have a dodgy display.

It wasn't in service for a few days not working.

The garage will never knowingly send a bus out when it is not working. The only occasional time one will get out is if the driver doesn't check until the first timing point, but would never be sent out a second day

I picked up a paper Coventry route map at Pool Meadow yesterday as they seem to be back, but upon review when i opened it up later yesterday evening, it said that routes 1 and 7A were not WMCA subsidised! I don't know if this is a mistake by TFWM but if those routes aren't subsidised then something must be going horribly wrong at NX if the 1 is running commercial (the 7A to be shortened to only the useful section from September).

I can see the 1 being removed or cut back as I hardly see anyone on it

4989 needs its display updating as the number is still on the right side

The right side is the right side. Coventry seem to like the 'wrong' side!

Has anybody noticed issues with the reliability of service 8, twice weekday afternoon departures have failed to turn up and I wondered what had happened. And yes I gave plenty of time before it was due in case it was early. 

Thanks,

I've had the same with one particular journey on the 17/17A being missing on Mon and Thur both this week and last week, like clockwork you would think, and very frustrating when it's your last leg home (of four buses per day) yet the other services I use were exemplary.

NXC are not saying so far what the TT is for bank holiday Monday. Will it be Sunday service?
