Notwithstanding, I would assume Ashton's more varied selection includes "13 Royston Vasey", which was commonly shown in the days when Glossop worked the 1701 (iirc), 204 in the early noughties.

The blinds are programmed by a USB stick so It quick and easy to change programs if need be HE and Sharston tend to share a program with different like 143 all HE buses dont have Sale or didn't last time i look where as sharston does.
So when they go on Loan they can simply plug the USB in and upload the Depot program and when it returns the depot it belongs to does the same and so on


The display with"MEGABUS" only shows Megabus on all Displays and "M" on back
"Megabus Manchester/London" however does show on the Side display either Manchester or London that yes could cause confusion
