This is the post-Savile, pre-privitisation era of "Fuck me we better do something swish to please the Tories"

This may be way off, but is there not possibly a more legal reason for staff being asked to remove the First branding other than basic aesthetics? The new company should not be allowing staff to wear another company's branding as the staff no longer represent the old brand.

It's more simple - and childish than that. Abellio don't want First getting credit for good work, and First don't want complaints for bad work.

(This is a world where people can't tell the difference between First's Train operations and First's bus operations)

Vangelis music... Where's the Spitting Image version?

(The track is a version of 'Lord Lindsay' from Chariots of Fire)

Apparently that article is wrong, it's only Orbit COMPLETE that was rebranded. In fact Orbit has a new logo.

The only Orbit brand in the UK is/was Orbit Complete, as far as I can tell (that article was from late last year anyway).
