I think Lee has answered, but my point was more so with Skylink for example. Even if the route is registered as 'Skylink', the destination is not static. It flicks between showing the 'Skylink' logo and then destinations served.

Does the Arriva 49 need changing as it shows Durham & Brandon.

They are allocated the general spares, which are the 'Mango' and 'Really Good' branded fleet (See attached photos). To avoid confusion, when allocated to a branded route, a card is placed in the windscreen.

Its not just the unbranded routes, you have the V1/V2 for the Rushcliffe Villager and V1/V2/V3 for the normal Villager (The routes do not meet at any point). There are a few more than that, too.

Two very different areas though, Rushcliffe is Nottinghamshire and Derby-Burton is in Derbyshire/Staffordshire.
When I lived in Tutbury, which the Villager goes through it was simply known as the Villager until it was expanded.

It doesn't need to be changed - it's just best practice to avoid showing simultaneous destinations, rather than a regulation.

Wonder what the case is with DDA compliant destinations regarding Hunter's MPD's, particularly W363ABD.

The legislation can be found here and the Department for Transport's guidance on the regulations here.
That vehicle would not meet PSVAR requirements, as the nearside of a vehicle has to be fitted with a 'route number display and a destination display' - ie a display capable of showing the route number and ultimate destination of a service. The display being used on the nearside of that vehicle is only capable of showing a route number, which is only acceptable on the rear of a vehicle.
As ghastly as the front display is, I would imagine that it would comply with the PSVAR regulations, although wouldn't be 'best practice', as it shows both terminal points on the display at once.

I haven't seen that out for a while. The last few times I've been up Stanley, it's been operated by KU52RXF instead. This is fitted with a flipdot display.

Adrian is correct - KU52RXF does have a flipdot route number and destination display fitted. Although the photograph below doesn't depict the side display, it is indeed a route number and destination display.

That'll be W363ABD if it has the same display in the bus in Jimmi's photograph on this post.

Often when I see KU52RXF it is not displaying 'Flint Hill' like in Dan's photograph, it's display is usually shown like it is on W363ABD.

That was an older photograph - more recent photographs of the vehicle show both terminal points:

Possibly the biggest offender when it comes to destination screens in the North East is Hodgsons Coaches, where of the four buses that are normally allocated to normal service work, three of them have no working destination equipment whatsoever whilst one MPD has a front LED screen but side number roller destination equipment.
S24 BUS - no working equipment
https://flic.kr/p/w7j3Yn
MUI 6061 - certainly no front destination equipment
https://flic.kr/p/BU1a8M
745 DUY - front screen, side roller
https://flic.kr/p/wG68G7
Believe that the other MPD they have doesn't have working equipment either.
Another concern with them is a lacking of ticketing equipment, pretty sure only the Solo has a ticket machine and according to Alex Garwood on Flickr, it doesn't appear to work. Everytime I've been on one of their buses they appear to have been noting passengers of using their services by writing it down on paper.

Well Scarlet Band certainly haven't made YJ06YRE DDA compliant, number on wrong side on front screen, side roller equipment with n destination blind in.

EDIT: NX55FFS? Side and rear rollers, no idea about front screen as it was displaying 'Sorry Not In Service'

Remember, the 'number on the right had side of the screen' is only a best if... thing - it does not make the vehicle non-DDA compliant. As for the others, you are quite right.

Weardale has Y6WMS on the 111/115 circuit today displaying 'Weardale' on the screen with pieces of paper in the window alerting passengers it's operating the 111.
