Looks like Belle Isle are replacing Flip dot desination gear and are now fitting leds to some more of their ALX300's.
From the previous list 446, 448, 457 and 475 now carry led destination screen.

Belle Isle based ALX300's 440 and 474 have also lost their flip dots in favour of led displays.
It would appear that there are still some flip dots at Castleford the following two 487 and 491 still had their flip dots this morning.
161 still carries it's as well for now.
