Nexus only Refurbished already Life Expired Units so they didn't have to ask for more funding from Government, Which would probably would've gotten rejected.

Though that is starting to bite back now.

(06 Mar 2016, 10:08 am)Bus_User wrote Well obviously there is not a 57min wait for a metro, that train will never arrive as the service is suspended between Benton and North Shields., I'm not sure where that photo is taken but a train will pop up on the boards which is a lot closer when it leaves North Shields station. Thats the constant fault of Nexus in years and years gone by in that whenever there is a possession, instead of alterating the destinations, they leave it exactly the same thus you get situations appearing on the board like the one above! I know they trialled it for the major line closures but I don't understand why they don't follow it up, especially when Benton is listed in the destination blinds.
