90 to Chelmsley

[Trident 4609]

Saw another Trident displaying Chelmsley today, can't remember for the life of me it's fleetnumber. I know it had a strange small Travel West Midlands logo above the door that I've not seen on any other Trident, and it was still in TWM livery.

Yes thats definetley 4328. Use to be based at WN then WA and now BC

I have seen an example on the 47, the displays fluctuate between Cofton and Cofton Park, with more details on the areas they pass through.

I believe the same is the 90 where is fluctuates between Chelmsley and Chelmsley wood via Coleshill etc etc. So seems an improvement in providing more info.

I'm not sure, but I don't think it does change between the two. Only the via points change via Coleshil and via Fox and Goose.

I've also seen a new destination on the 46, with ASTON and LOZELLS in huge letters and no service number after the ultimate destination screen.

No it didn't change, it just stayed as Chelmsley, I watched it come up the Priory Queensway

Between WA & BC it went to YW ;)

BC seem to regularly tinker with their destination displays, and not always for the better. The 61, which used to display multiple 'via' points now just shows Frankley Holly Hill via Bristol Road, whereas the 63 shows via B'ville College and via Rubery. No mention of Bristol Rd, Selly Oak, Northfield etc - very inconsistent. The X64 seems to have an experimental type display with a lower case x and multiple places served but without 'via' or 'and'.

I've also noticed that most routes now show Birmingham City Centre inbound, rather than Birmingham Colmore Row, New St Station etc.

On the electronic real time display stops on Priory Queensway the other day it was showing "56 - Fordbridge", rather than Kingshurst. I know it terminates on Fordbridge Road but...

[Gareth]

The stops on Priory Queensway are still the wrong way round, almost a year after they were changed around The 56,72 and 90 stop showing Towards Chelmsley Wood and the 55,94 stop showing towards Bromford Bridge.

I saw a 51 enviro today displaying "51 Walsall" then it alternated to the severe weather disruptions screen! Quite ironic on such a sunny day!!

[CL]

This has the same effect on the 47, until AFTER it says "Via Pershore Road" for Example, it will say that the 47 goes to Coften, It does switch bettwen via... & Hackett, and I must say, It all could just fit onto one whole line!

[Steveminor]

Could be wrong but i think it's a symptom of using the same programme for both the flip dot & the led displays, plus to make matters worse Hanover have about 3 different models of each. Therefore if you are using programming in the destinations on the software it may look slightly (or even very) different on different buses etc.
