It wasn't even used for the 3 packed X1's I saw.

What's the score with them being used? I thought it removed the service number and destination from the display to replace it with a bus full message, so if for example the DVSA were out doing spot checks, how would they know that the service has operated?

The hydrogen demo Stagecoach is trilling is fitted with a HD LED screen making the text look like it’s printed on a blind rather than dots of light:

What with it being on that side of the blind and the whole argument about not being able to see the number when it's positioned there and the operator ignoring best practice guidance...

Perhaps GNE could include the Amazon Logo on the destination once it arrives at The Galleries and when it departs Heworth.

It's an improvement, but I think the real problem is that some don't read the destinations at all. Not sure how you can confuse Houghton-le-Spring and Heworth, Metro logo or not.
Perhaps it's one of these cases where it's actually the infrastructure that needs to be improved? Such as having two bus stops, preferably one at each side of the road, with the Houghton-bound journeys taking an anti-clockwise route.
