Regarding bringing back any of the BR Brands or Intercity or Merlin Livery: NO!
Like it or not, this is not 1989, and the halcyon days are long gone, and so are those brands, they were designed of an age, and belong to an age. I am sorry, but I think we need to look at the reality: the railway is a modern business in the BUSINESS of attracting custom, competing with modern brands.
But does the Intercity livery look any worse, or less modern than some of the liverys currently floating around? Will an Intercity livery mean less passengers? I doubt it.
As for the brand and logo. Is much better than a lot of other logos, and more modern than a lot of other logos. Definitely wouldnt make any difference.
