This is the hugest loss Rail Tags will ever take, not being able to give something truly special back to us South Westerners.
This will haunt us going forward knowing how close we got and the time we spent trying to make this happen.
We have the opportunity to give GBR it's own identity, and help the railway work better through functional design.
I'll cheerfully admit, my proposal isn't perfect, but it's a step in the correct direction - designed for the passenger.
Let's start Moving Britain, by design.
It has arrived!
Moving Britain, by Design
a visual identity proposal for Great British Railways.
Read the full proposal here:
mbbd.lkbergen.com
or

Let me show you some highlights - 🧵👇
So we're really going to roll this out at a national level with no differentiation better local, regional, intercity? Flag waving taking precedence over style and function 😒
Another big rail moment today, as South Western gets its first GBR train.
Since coming into public ownership, a new fleet of trains has been rolling out, giving passengers more spacious, comfortable & air conditioned journeys.
We're building a railway you can be proud of. 🇬🇧🚆
One of these trains does visual identity of a British transport institution really well. The other is a mess.
We don't need the flag to prescribe the British rail identity. We just need the Double Arrow, the colour palette, and good typography.
That's it.
@Heidi_Labour Heidi, please read the room, the GBR livery is both bad, divisive, and an eye-sore.
Don't waste our money on this.
I'm sending you a proposal from a total-design solution for our railway, please take this seriously.
To wrap things off for today, here is a preview of the Bicolour Light & Dark Blue Class 37 tags taken from the Continental Rail side logo.
These will cost £26.99 upon release
