238 Bermondsey Stratford?

[Deleted]

I would've listed this in iBus Faults but I forgot to mark down the Fleet Number.

I was on a 238 recently and I was very amused by the iBus announcement confusion that the bus was experiencing.

Although it was displaying correctly it announced "Row Addi" instead of Park Road and "Richam Park" (or something along those lines) instead of Stratford Park but the highlight of the journey was that it was announcing "Bermondsey" instead of 'to' which came to much amusement that every time it stopped it announced "238 Bermondsey Stratford" and a recording of that is attached.

I had to share this ;D.

It wouldn't help if you could as it's only a sound clip, although it sounds as if she is saying Bumondsey. Sounds like a dodgy sound card TBH as is the sort of thing I've had on a few of our WVL's (all reported as I now report and then switch it off to avoid confusion)

Apologies, it opens on my computer with Quick Time, I have now uploaded an MP3 version of the file so that should work.

I checked the recording settings and it was recorded on 21/10/11 at 23:51 and I think I was at or near East Ham Station at this point or possibly on High Street North but definitely in that general area.
