I believe some operators issue booklets these days, with a photo of the dash and labels.
More than just between models............
Ashington's drivers will have had to have been type-trained again on the last batch of E400s (7522-33) as their dash is different to that in the older examples (7501-9/11-21). To use another example from another company - if Stagecoach Stockton even got 22341-8/408-13 from Newcastle, all the driving team would have to be type-trained on them despite Stockton having similar examples as they have a different dash even to the MAN E300s.
