Helen isn't available for free by legitimate means anymore, so anyone who doesn't already have it won't be able to do that.

Manual can be found here:

I don't know how long or why this was on my PC, but messed around with it a bit.

If you want to get roughly the correct sized destinations - Sign 0 (front) should be either 144x17 or 144x19, 1 (side) is 96x8, 2 (rear) is 32x17. 

Non-colour destinations should be "External LED", and front "justification" should be set to right, side destination left. 

These are different throughout operators, so I'm open to correction. 

Good job Jamie

Thanks! May I ask, is there any list of the possible sizes used within the GNE fleet?

What size is the rear display of the CityLink 58 buses?

160x24

It's smaller than that because indigo buses use them size as rears

They are. Its just the compressed version as they couldn't use the full width ones due to the design of the bus being unable to accomodate them. The same applies to the Venture SRs.

No its not, they have exactly the same amount of LED's (160x24 = 3840) , just on the 58 vehicles the LED's are of a close pitch design.
