Rebranding also requires honesty

-

SIR, – Large-lettered rebranding on some Abellio ScotRail 125 trains includes the self-congratula­tory “We’re building the best railway Scotland’s ever had”.

In this era of transparen­cy, will Abellio ScotRail play fair and brand an equal number of trains with “We’ve just received the biggest fine ScotRail has ever had”? (P&J, October 23).

Better still, will Abellio ScotRail drop the infantile “best railway” nonsense?

To those of us with longer memories, it smacks of Jack McConnell’s toe-curling sloganisin­g of Scotland as “the best wee country in the world”.
