Japanese railway operator logo collection
Looking at the "Metro Meme" thread (seems dead now) on SkyscraperPage forum, I thought it may be cool to collect logo symbols of Japanese railway operators. (So we have another imitate-Europeans page here!)
| External link: Metro Bits: This famous metro-orientated website contains the page called Variations of the Letter M, a huge collection of metro logos around the world. The above thread used the logo images of this collection, so you can say I |
Notes:
This collection is far from, and not meant to be, complete.
Some operators have more than one logo/symbol. I listed just one for each.
I do not guarantee any accuracy of the data. Some are my tentative drawings.
