The LFSAs on the M60SBS DO NOT have any sort of screens.

 

Considering no Artics besides the Q44/M15 pilot fleets and new deliveries late 2018 and later have screens it shouldn't be a shock.

1262 has updated version 2 TVs

 

Those look like the same exact screens to me. The M15 has the ones that show the time arrivals for other routes.

Can’t see pictures. Something wrong with the embedded code for the jpeg.

Does the version 2 buses still annouces transfers to a route or subway line? I remember hearing it on the B36 then later, it wasn't announced such as

"Next Stop: Surf Av/Stillwell Av. Transfer is available  for B64, 68, 82 and  D F N Q lines"

I was just wondering the same thing too. Had them on the B46 SBS, yet they don’t have them anymore. Are they going through software updates?

7279 has the screens now but it has no announcements  yet it was doing a run on my B20 while I was going home today.

What a coincidence! I was just going to report the same unit! I was on 7279 a few minutes ago on the B57; Only half of the screen was on and the other half was black.
