The new one's pretty ugly. Looks like it was designed by a committee of
government drones or something. But the old one...

This one would look sharp in *many* colors, I think. (printed in white on a
dark background as a transparent sticker, printed in black on a light
background as a transparent sticker, printed in orange on a green boxcar as
a transparent sticker, orange thread on a white shirt, black or blue thread
on a white shirt, orange thread on a dark green shirt, orange thread with
green fill behind it on a white or black shirt, and so on)
And the change from Pacific Great Eastern /Rwy. to Vancouver Lego(r) Train
/Club (the part after the slash is the part in reversed letters at the
bottom of the circle in each case) seems a natural.
This is an easy transformation. Looks like a winner! Just need some artist
to sharpen it up and enlarge it and replace the letters... Not all that
uncommon a font, it looks like a chunky Arial almost, but with some
stylistic diffs.
