Example below: http://www.konectbus.co.uk/
Looking forward to the uproar on the "Pricing" thread when the new website is released to the public...

It's gonna be intresting to see how much a single fare costs... lets say from Chester to Town End Farm
(08 Mar 2015, 1:17 pm)Dan wrote Well a maximum return (3+ BuzzFare zones) is £7.30 - I'd imagine the single would be about £6.90, based on the fact there's never much difference between a single fare and a return? Of course, 3+ BuzzFare day ticket then costs £7.70.
Hopefully we see other operators in the region catching on and also implementing online fare calculators...

(08 Mar 2015, 7:05 pm)Dan wrote Not directly.
We design the destinations in the HELEN destination software and save it. The displays on that programme are then uploaded to the bus by someone at the depot - apart from on the new buses!

(08 Mar 2015, 7:08 pm)citaro5284 wrote We can check the programme and do any amendments then ask the depots to upload the revised file to the vehicles concerned. We are looking at wifi downloading thou so when the vehicle(s) goes back to the depot it automatically updates with the new file.
On a separate issue, also looking at the possibility of updating the destinations mid route to take off the via point once the vehicle has past that location.....something for my work colleague to work on in the future......haha!

Would be quite interesting to see an old fashioned scroller on an Angel.
But, if they did re-introduce them, I'd like to see the type Lothian use.
