In earlier posts on this thread, I brought up reporting marks because if we went with a global rail entity, we would need reporting marks for the equipment.
If our railroads lease rolling stock from the parent corporation, we could assign the reporting marks to the locomotives like Pioneer Rail does with the Kendallville Terminal Railroad by putting it's leasing company reporting marks (PREX) on the side of the cab of its SW8.
I would also stick with a corporate name that would fit in an earlier time frame like Global Lines (GLRX) or Greenwich & Meridian Lines (GMLX). Lines was a more popular term versus industries or rail corporation.
May I also suggest corporate colors? I vote blue and yellow because it's so much easier to get rolling stock in those colors.
