Has anybody else noticed a strange chiming noise coming from the bus shelters today?

There's a noisy bus stop on the 4 service near Walsall keeps making a beeping sound but is quite loud and seems to becoming from the real time information display.

Cold messing with the circuits?

I suppose logically that's the answer (The one by me still thinks its 16:10 yesterday and is stuck on "11A Anticlo" where it should be scrolling) but I didn't even realise they had speakers. I suppose we can look forward to talking bus stops once talking buses are introduced.

I wonder why it only seems to have started today, surely last friday was the worst for cold temperatures.
