As I posted in the Stagecoach East Midlands thread Mansfield ALX 400 18164 is in use with a flip dot blind. How many buses are still in service at the moment with flipdot blinds, just seems rather rare these days.

The Cleethorpes Seasiders did have flipdots blinds but been replaced for this season with LED blinds

Until fairly recently, there were one or two survivors in the Leeds City fleet.

I'm pretty sure there's still a Stagecoach South ALX 400 at Aldershot depot(?) running about with flip-dot blinds.

Used to appear on the route 20 (formerly KITE) between Guildford and Aldershot quite a bit.
