My fantasy for a long time is for the Overground lines to be named after

Romford-Upminster becomes "The Ladybird" etc.

This would actually turn the LO into a tourist attraction, with people
heading out to Romford just to see the Ladybird train.


The I.O.W got there first. Such things date very quickly.

They were tacky and childish. I don't think an entire train in giraffe
patches would look bad.
