Yes - they show "METRO" on the top line if my memory serves, as "Metro Replacement" with a route number doesn't fit if you want it in a large font.
Will try and get a photo of the destination next time I'm on a bus with flipdot displays (if I remember), if you'd like me to.

We are, and we have around 30 front LED destinations in circulation following the withdrawal of a large number of vehicles over the past few months. Without consulting my list, I think we have enough now to get rid of all front flipdot displays on all vehicles excluding Olympians and Lolynes.
We have fewer side and rear displays going spare (as demonstrated by the fact we had to give the OmniDekkas rear displays for their sides), but it's the front most people notice!
