    It's interesting (& in a physical not historical sense probably not coincidental) how much the British Rail logo resembles a swastika.https://twitter.com/MrTimDunn/status/912009372292780033 …

    The British Rail logo is 53 years old. 50 designs were proposed by the Design Research Unit. Here are 4 that were rejected, and the winner. pic.twitter.com/F3J4Tbbt0A

        I suspect I will have seen this Two Ronnies British Rail sketch at the time, since my family used to watch it together.

        Let's hope he doesn't find any old Rudyard Kipling books. The front cover usually carried a Swastika. The Nazi bastard! :-)

        If he were still alive, I suspect Misha Black, Jewish co-founder of the Design Research Unit, would tell you precisely how clueless you are.

        I'm guessing that if he were a design expert, he'd recognise immediately what the structural resemblance was.
