Post by: johnneyw on November 26, 2018, 22:59:21 The excellent Retours website (railway history design and photography) features a section on corporate identities for European railway companies. Chosen to model Britain's distinctive double arrow logo, a name board at Severn Beach has stepped up to the plate.
