When heading to the tip earlier, I noticed one of the recently repainted Gemini's from Washington sporting an advert on its o/s.
One to keep an eye on with regard to the rebrands?

(28 Feb 2016, 12:57 pm)Adrian I'd say there's a very good reason for having it on the front. I can think of four bus stations off the top of my head, where buses have to reverse out of the stands. Hence you have a problem of people running towards the bus doors, as it's reversing.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that having a warning destination will rid the world of idiots, but it'll certainly reduce the number trying to board a reversing bus.

Yep, and the people who try boarding reversing buses are the same muppets who go kicking and screaming with GNE / Arriva on Facebook when their bus runs late.
GET TO THE STOP 5 MINUTES BEFORE THE BUS IS DUE TO LEAVE WITH THE CORRECT MONEY (or near enough) OR PASS READY!
*Not you guys BTW, I'm saying this as a general rule of thumb which some passengers just simply can't compehend with.
And this alone would stop a good proportion of services incurring delays pending upon road and traffic conditions.
