We may well see further variations in the future as staff learn
how to cope with this ridiculously long name.


Um, well, it is a shorter name than "West Anglia Great Northern".

If they didn't insist on adding "First" to all their company names (as
they don't with Hull Trains) they'd not have the problem.
