This was disabled after the initial trial on Quaylink back some years ago, as the technology wasn't really all there. On the new Next Stop Announcement hardware, the technology is much improved and definitely works (the X9/X10 change destinations by themselves in Peterlee/Dalton Park, and the 81/82/83/84 had this feature tested a week or two ago).
So, on arrival into Gateshead, the destination on the 21 will change to "Eldon Square" by itself, and so on.
The 21, 26/27 and Q1 are all capable of doing this.
Ah right that sounds good, and would be really useful!
Do the NSAs on the 21 still say Newcastle Eldon Sq, or just Newcastle?
