MGR Hooper! Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Seems like DRS has gone in for a bit of a re-brand? https://www.directrailservices.com/a-new-era-in-direct-rail-services-identity/ The new logo seems like a bit of an anti-climax after we had the absolute superb DRS Compass logo. Just my opinion though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forget Revolution Trains and Rainbow Railways cut in all this as well. It was inevitable after the formation of NTS - the paint frothers were active then...............

RMweb Premium John M Upton Posted May 10, 2021 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 10, 2021 (edited) It's a bit.... naff! Mind you, Colas did the same, replaced their nice hard hat logo with some meaningless diamonds that looked like they were drawn by a five year old in MS Paint....

KDG Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 More of a de-brand. Too abstract and means nothing. Much prefer the Compass livery. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
