Thanks for that; I wasn't aware that that was their policy.

It's really unhelpful, even if it does mean that the driver doesn't have to change over only a short way into the journey.
In Coventry, sometimes the 30a and 30c would just display 'Anticlockwise' and 'Clockwise', and you'd sometimes see 'Circular service', which are more useful in my opinion, even if not completely desirable.
In Warrington, circulars always give the name of the furthest point away from town that they go to, e.g. Westy on the 1/2, Gainsborough Road on the 11(a), Loushers Lane on the 12(a).
This is good from a passenger's point of view: I for one would be confused no end if buses started leaving Warrington Interchange displaying 'Warrington': I'd assume they'd just come in and hadn't changed over yet, or were going out of service.
