Can't find anything other than on Nexus website, and that's just a timetable, no details on what it's for.
Cancellation on VOSA today, shame it was a short service, has it had many passengers on?

If I'm right, there's a legal requirement to have them as of 2 days ago but wouldn't be surprised if they haven't bothered.
I managed that rubber neck into a E200, the other day. No sign of any sort of display for them. No idea if there are audio ones.

Aye don't believe they've bothered at all yet. Pretty poor since it's the law and has been in for months.
Half the time one of the e200s on the 19 doesn’t even have a working display. People flag down a white bus in the vague hope it’s a 19
Was waiting for a different bus and spotted a GCT had a notice up with a nexus logo at the wheelchair space mind you it looked like size 12 font and a war and peace message for passengers ...anyone know what it says or about? GcT must of been forced to display it as its a nexus logo and they dont inform customers of anything!

If it's the one I think it is. It's about how the service is contracted by Nexus and if you have any issues with the service then how to contact them to complain.
In fairness though they've been updating their website recently with the important stuff -

Seems like they're trying to actually improve the service.
One thing I do like is how they have videos of their routes to help new drivers learn.
Get stuck out on the route? Look up the video, that should help a lot of new drivers. Other companies should do this.
