So someone has noticed the first change.  Full colour LED destination display

Liverpool Street

Well yes.

Full colour is, full colour.

LED is orange on black.

Flip Dot is little yellow flipping dots to make the destination.

One thing Daimler Mercedes Benz are good at is producing excellent Diesel engines, I do miss the sound of the 0405n for all its faults you couldn't knock that 12 litre engine.

Indeed, the interior is brighter with the LED interior lights.

They be the same in the B7RLE & E200's if I'm not mistaken.

I'm not sure I see the point in these full colour LEDs. Go North East use them for the route numbers on their array of branded routes but in practice they're not that easy to read.

Maybe this is NXWM's idea of 'gold' corridor buses?  :)

Is this an experimental bus to see if the colour LEDs work and are effective?
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

You're right Mike.

In the daytime you can read any colours easier providing theyre bright, but at night its best to have high contrast and not so bright as some LED's are blinding at night!

They only show Orange on black on the display anyway!

Probably because the driver has only one side switched on
.
Wouldn't be on the road if they weren't working

Sorry meant to say it was just the front upstairs segment on left that was out

nitromatt1

Not really much to get excited about then
