The indiGo Washington minibuses have the announcements programmed for 82/82A/82B and 85/86, and I intend to create a TFT monitor version for the odd journeys which are operated by Fab Fifty Six, Red Arrows and Connections4 branded buses.

We've moved away from the line plan format now on TFT monitors. Nice idea but a bit too difficult to maintain! Hanover are currently developing some new software to help make the process easier, so we could possibly go back to the line plan in future... Who knows!

Ok thanks. It does seem to make more sense to do 1 big update with everything as opposed to 2 smaller ones. I do agree with each bus with Next Stop Announcements having all programmes installed, even if it is not the route that the bus would normally operate.

Its a shame the line plan format is being abandoned. It looks really good but if it is too hard to handle then obviously it has to be changed. Hopefully something similar could be introduced in the future, depending on how good this new software is once completed.
