The real time feature is still in testing stages and there are a few 'bugs' with it which perhaps explains the lack of publicity at this stage. I'm sure some of you would have spotted some of the bugs/glitches already - I've seen a few enthusiasts twisting on Facebook about it.

As a result they are now in talks about a new destination blind system, like what Edinburgh use. Not done with winding handles, still with the buttom system and it just turns at sets itself, winding handle provided for a backup. Its only talks its not confirmed i must stress. Carn't see it happening myself, cost too much.

As i said its talks, i believe there was only a few high up managers on about it from what i heard. That last bit went way over my head, i don't know what your profile 9 and 0 are, i don't know what flipdots are, i don't know what a hanover is, hangover yeah but hanover lost on me. I was simply trying to "discuss" under the Discussion thread something about buses which i thought a bus spotters forum was about. Discussing bus spotting and stuff that goes with it. Thought it might get a discussion going about pros and cons of thier possiable idea. As i said was only a discussion.

Dan maybe not be a Manager, but I am!
