Strange message on indiGo Next Stop Announcements - Indigo701 - 31 Mar 2020

With the reduced timetables, I've been commuting back on a night via the 82 and tonight on 682 I saw a quirky message on the NSA screen. Any thoughts on it?[Image: a36d871ce32897544fd8f75def1f1171.jpg]

Quite odd. Could it be a latitude reading i.e. 54.897784 degrees north? Might be coming from the GPS tracking which makes the bus appear on the app and be visible to control?

Could be, 682 is part of a handful where the audio announcements happen and text freezes.

I'd probably be due quite a significant payment if I got a £1 for every time I've reported dodgy NSA's on the 82 in the past.

There's also a handful which consistently show 'Next Stop: Washington Galleries"
