I hope not. The full screen text is much easier to read. Although I still think they should have them like MTA buses in NYC, where the destination is full size, but every 1.5(?) seconds it changes to either 'via [wherever]', or 'LIMITED' (express), or even just more detail on the exact destination.




So for GNE buses with the older non-self-updating destination controllers could flick between a full screen 'NEWCASTLE' & 'NEW BRIDGE ST' for example.
Or for buses with self-updating destination controllers like the refurbished Cobalts, from the Coast they could flick between 'NEWCASTLE' (full size) & 'via Whitley Bay & Cobalt' (over 2 lines) - then once they pass Cobalt just flick between a full screen 'NEWCASTLE' & 'HAYMARKET'.

The latter might be a bit complicated though and take up alot of memory lol  Big Grin
