Great British Railways logo to ‘restore pride' in network
The Independent
|March 11, 2025
A new Great British Railways logo that will "restore pride" in the British train network is set to be unveiled in May on the first trains to be nationalised under the Labour government.
Officials are currently in the process of finalising the new branding, with the Union Jack set to feature prominently, The Times reported. Great British Railways is the train body to be set up by the government, which is currently working on renationalising the railways.
Similar to British Rail, the state-owned company that operated the rail network across the country until 1997, Great British Railways will be the public sector body overseeing trains once they come back into public ownership.
Starting with South Western Railways, trains will be brought back under public control, followed by C2C which shuttles between London and south Essex, and Greater Anglia, the network covering East Anglia and operating the Stansted Express.
