140 Southshore Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 Here's two from June 2013: SMART #23308: The entire thing is shifted a bit too high. I've already posted another photo of this taken a few seconds later back when I first joined (over on the SMART thread), but I uploaded this to give you a better look at the destination sign. SMART #23361: The "E" in "WYANDOTTE" is cut off for some reason. In addition, every rear destination sign on the entire SMART fleet has been broken for a few years (blame it on those brutal Michigan winters and potholes!), as a result, it may be interesting to see some of them, with permanently-stuck flip-dot displays!

Puget Sound Rider Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 The side destination sign (for the route number) was displaying the destination as well...Didn't work too well.

But seriously though, that is somewhat common with STO Balios signs. The Ex Calgary buses also looked like they had signs that came out of '96 or '97 Classics.

dudebrains Posted September 21, 2018 Report Share Posted September 21, 2018 Noticed a pretty nasty screw-up from the STO. The Balios (on 9131, 9134 and 02XX to 04XX) signs on the 33 MUSEE CANADIEN DE L'HISTOIRE (Short turn) actually display 33 MUSEE CANADIEN 33 DE L'HITOIRE (the ''S'' is missing in Histoire) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TechSpotlight Posted February 4, 2019 Report Share Posted February 4, 2019 7829 usually has sign troubles when I see it and this one day in December 2018 is one of those days the left half of the sign froze. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShadowFoxNixill Posted February 5, 2019 Report Share Posted February 5, 2019 Saw this on twitter - the worst part about it is that DDOT never had a route "8 Crosstown". It was formerly 14 Crosstown, but on September 1st of 2018, it became 8 Warren. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
