I am amazed that these changes have been made to an established
typeface which has so much exposure to the general public. Presumably
the new designs will only appear on new signs and publications, so for
the forseeable future the superseded designs will still be on show all
over the network.

I know little of these things, but it looks to me as if they may, for
reasons unknown, have switched to 'ITC Johnston':
