They should lose the word “Great” from the name. I know that the landmass is officially named “Great Britain”, but sticking a “Great” in the name of a railway company reeks of insecurity and Brexit-era Faragist flag-shagging. If nothing else, it looks like something the Tories would have put up as a distraction while they helped their old school chums loot the public purse.
Yes, and also they had the British Rail arrow logo redrawn in union-jack colours. If we’re keeping their ridiculously jingoistic name (for a nationalised rail company that goes beyond the scope of what they had in mind), we should keep the aggressively Brexity iconography as well.

I’m pretty sure it was the tories who gave it this name when they were doing it.
