Didn't they get rid of of the small suffix's because they were not DDA compliant isn't that why they stopped using capitals on destination blinds and having all the via points on blinds ?

As Vjaska said, it's nothing to do with DDA, but I personally believe it's more of what TfL specify for operators in the contract specifications

The 126's 'Bromley South' blind really irritates me.

The 126's 'Bromley South' blind really irritates me. The ringers road terminus was to be a temporary arrangement. It is now to be permanent I understand as the new development has no space to stand buses. So would explain why Bromley South is on the blind bare in mind many of the Enviro 200s on the 126 have the original blinds

The 126's 'Bromley South' blind really irritates me. I don't really see an alternative I would like to see it changed to Bromley Town Centre so that it matches the ibus announcement. Even though the bus terminates a two minute walk from Bromley South Station, it doesn't serve the stops directly outside.

But I suppose it's done cos Bromley's town centre is quite large and stretches between Bromley's two stations.

Bromley, Shopping Centre or Bromley, High Street would be fine.

Bromley Town Centre is fine as it actually makes sense in this case isn't broken doesn't need fixing not being harsh but needs to be said. It doesn't need to be so precise wwe have the Mall, the Glades & High Street in the same place. Bromley Town Centre covers all of that.

But Bromley South is very misleading.

This week noticed on the 56 in Angel new blinds in a E400. Instead of "St Bartholowmew's Hospital" which is currently on the E400H blinds the blind now shows "Bart's Hospital" probably the most ugly description and vague destination. May as well has put Bart Simpson on it instead
