My personal take is that the current LN(W)R livery/branding is similar to the WMR branding as they're operated by the same parent company at present. Of course, the WMR branding may yet change again if TfWM change their minds again, but that seems likely to be the long-term branding.Yes, but there is no certainty (or requirement) for the next TOC to actually adopt them, unlike ScotRail. It's just at their cost if they don't.
What they basically ruled out was the use of the likes of "First x", "Stagecoach X", "Arriva X", "Virgin X" etc unless the company paid the full costs of removing it *and* providing a replacement generic brand.
