On the Renowns the number is tiny, and also the ''Whitley Bay'' etc. bit isn't fixed like most of them.
Also, you could possibly add more via points? e.g ''via Rake Lane - North Shields - Royal Quays - Holy Cross - Wallsend - Wiltshire Drive - Benton Asda - Killingworth - Dudley''
Also, I quite like the blinds where it says ''Shops via....''. That would be a nice feature.
We can go through the destination displays for service 17, but I can't guarantee any changes being made. The reason we're going through the destinations for the "Lime" group of services is obviously because new vehicles are due to enter service so this is a great time to make any changes.
Can you elaborate on the tiny number? The software we use automatically makes the number the largest it can be for the size of that destination display. I've looked through all of my photographs and I can't see a Volvo B10BLE on the 17 with a tiny number. See photograph below:

If you've seen vehicles which look different to the above, the switch setting on the bus has been incorrectly set. The front destination display may think it's a rear, or something similar.
Including "Shops via x - y - z" on the destination display is a good idea, as it would allow consistency throughout. We (or rather, citaro5284, as it was obviously before my time) implemented this a few years ago on the services terminating at Eldon Square in Newcastle.
