British Rail Corporate Identity - for content creators

Post by PFX »

I found a site that may be useful for content creators and of general interest also.

It features a huge resource on the corporate identity of British Rail. I would be keen to reproduce the Rail Alphabet but I'm sure I would breaching all sorts of copyright given new Rail Alphabet costs £100 per licence to use!

If you read the rules surrounding the copyright law, you can use the lettering, as long as its not for any commerical purpose and you're not profiting of it in any way.
