I think displays boards on the buses could display changes, Solars/Versas/new vehicles have display screens (for next stop and/or CCTV) maybe they should feature 'Sunderland Bus Changes' with some passengers bound to notice and say 'Betty the 26 is getting replaced' etc.
But the buses have had the Sunderland bus briefing on them for a number of weeks, the timetables (have most likely) been updated at the stops, and the destination display on the front of the vehicle lists both the destination and a scrolling list of points. Stopping to explain to someone at each stop isn't practical. If anything it will annoy your customers already on the bus, who will think the driver is taking the piss stopping at each stop by chance.
