2004 IIRC.Would that be mid-2000s then?
2004 IIRC.
However staff joining up until 2012 and Abellio takeover had "London Eastern Railway" contracts.
There are FGW logos up everywhere. IIRC there are still whole stations with whole FGW branding.
Oh yeah - there's that giant "pedestrians this way for trains" sign on the A40. Forgot about that.The Greenford branch being a nice throwback if you want to see a lot.
Pretty sure all the stations between Didcot and Reading are still entirely FGW branded, not even a attempt to cover up 'First Great Western' with 'Great Western Railway', like on some of the Greenford branchThere are FGW logos up everywhere.

I mentioned Maidenhead in an earlier post; it, like the rest of the Marlow branch, hasn't been touched in terms of signage, despite the works that went on with the station buildings in preparation for electrification and Crossrail works. Twyford might be the same, though I haven't been on that section of line for a while.Marlow/Bourne End branch too doesn't feel like its been touched in years.
That bothers me way more than it should!I don't know about outdated bit just wrong.
Has been in Pariham for years and nobody seems to have noticed.

Some time ago, I mentioned a proposal to change the IATA code for Burbank/Glendale/Pasadena airport from BUR to BOB following the death of Bob Hope (the airport’s called Bob Hope Airport). The ramifications were so far-reaching and costly that it was subsequently dropped.On the Avanti Pendolinos - there's a ;little electric panel by the door saying where the next stop is and other things. but the train is identified with the VT prefix and then a number. Is it too difficult for them to change I wonder.
A bit like the IATA code for St Petersburg Airport being LED still - dating way back to Soviet times.
I find that rather more painful than I should find it...I don't know about outdated bit just wrong.

Try OpenStreetmap: https://www.openstreetmap.org/search?query=meridian water#map=17/51.61029/-0.04857The route map at Cheshunt shows Angel Road at the place of Meridian Water. It confused me as I am going to Meridian Water and I have to cross-reference other maps to see my destination (some of my PDF maps also don't have this new station as well).
