Yes although they're lined up to replace Solos I believe, and the expected cascade of Pulsar's will replace the Cadets.

(17 Dec 2017, 6:27 pm)RobinHood They all have it as far as I know. It's just an alternative to the main NIS screen, which most drivers use the default.

All depots? Or just Redcar?
Thanks for clarifying that its an alternative option.
Can't decide whether it's a good thing or not.

Would imagine all depots have these displays, I've definitely seen Darlington Depot and Belmont Depot pop up, possibly Blyth Depot as well. Would imagine the usual Not In Service blind should be used but these probably get selected half the time instead, the Frequenta, Sapphire and MAX logo displays sometimes do as well.

There's no Not In Service/Depot blind for Northumbria. Andreos said he saw a vehicle displaying Not In Service with the depot below it. Unsure as to what Durham County's are at the moment, as there's various files made by various people.

All of ours are as follows:
Ashington Depot / Arriva North East
Blyth Depot / Arriva North East
Newcastle Depot / Arriva North East
Not In Service / arrivabus.co.uk
MAX
Sapphire
Frequenta
Arriva North East / Welcome Aboard
Arriva North East / a DB company
and a few more...

Apparently more are to be done and will supposedly have the seats re-trimmed into e-leather, this one certainly had at least.

EDIT: 4716 & 4717 currently at Thornton's.

The "South" has

Arriva Stockton 
Arriva Redcar     
Arriva Whitby 
These 3 display Arriva North East ******** Depot which is possibly the blind you saw. All depots have there own version of this as displayed at the end of Durham Rally 2016 with 1512 and 1324 displaying thier depots versions, Stockton and Durham respectively. 

The Max,  Sapphire and Frequenta logo is on a different number for the South, where as in the North its all on 0000 same as sorry not in service. Drivers use this cause its quicker.
