The stickers are mainly a stock-taking measure.
Hillside trains can have Bayside temporary windows & vv.
It's just a matter of where the train is when the window is found missing
and where the nearest temporary window can be located (so the train can
get be "road worthy" again.)

Should I be as bold to suggest that more windows are kicked out of trains
in "less fortunate" areas of Melbourne?  (i.e. Much of Bayside's network!)
