LED lettering used by PTV (Public Transport Victoria) on the SmartBus boards for "how long until the next bus" information.  I ride the bus to work each day, so these are pretty familiar, but I still had to guess some of them.  I've left out some glyphs where they're just not useful (e.g. comma or quotation marks).
