    Says westmoreland street? Isn't that a big street. Also I presume there's many buses so I assume there is signs on the front of them indicating destination.

    There are only 2-3 bus stops on that street so it should be easy enough to find the right one. The numbers are on the top of the bus stop pole and on the timetable. There are (or at least were) usually DB staff around to ask.

    No, its not a big street. It's a very wide street, but it is not all that long. The bus stops are all beside each other. The only buses running at that time of night will be the Nitelink buses, so you won't have to look very hard to find your one. As the poster above said, each bus stop sign has the number of the Nitelink bus that stops at it.

    Although it could be anywhere up to five bus lengths further back that the post depending on how many others are leaving at that time...

    The Nitelink buses are usually at their stop about 15 minutes before departure and you can board then to get away from the elements outside. If you arrive 5 minutes before you will have no problem finding your bus.

    Yes Pen.Island...which neatly brings us to acknowledging how great an idea it was for the NTA to fund the refurbishment of older BAC vehicles to include NEW,IMPROVED,Hi-Viz L.E.D. Destination displays !!!

    See.....?...This is how Politicians get to include Good-News vibes when all around them is desolation and waste......ask the right question and you'll get the right answer ;)
