Definitely no longer used at DCC, though it looks an interesting piece of kit. Timetables nowadays are generated on a much more modern, cloud based software package.
The Ticketer machines is an interesting one though. Generation 1 Ticketer machines used by many North East independent operators do indeed use Windows CE, often in the menus when you press on a button, or click the date/time on the bottom corner to load the pop up clock, it quickly flashes up the traditional Windows cursor. Newer generation machines, like those used by Arriva and Go North East, run an Android OS but still the same Ticketer software/app. The Android OS versions are much quicker at loading up and are less temperamental.
Some Ticketer machines also have the phase-out of 3G connectivity to deal with, reported in RouteOne:
