Indeed. And here's another gem: "It was difficult to tell exactly how
it would work out in the field."

Difficult? Blindingly obvious, I would have thought.

That's right, and what's he on about, it doesn't look good on paper, they
should take a look at what South Central are doing and try to find a nice
traditional railway name (Southern) and base themselves on that kind of
thing, not some daft names in a horrible 1990s font.

I personally quite like their official company name, London Eastern Railway
they could use that or something like Eastern Railways, Greater Eastern
Railways and so on.
