You've nationalised the railways!
The Big Four have become one - British Railways.

After World War II, Britain's railway companies were struggling. Nationalisation as one company - British Railways (BR) - was the solution.

British Railways

With an aging rail network in need of modernising, British Railways started to introduce new diesel and electric locomotives to replace steam locomotives.

British Railways II

The success of diesel locomotives led to a new livery and famous logo for the renamed British Rail.

British Rail III

Following the rebranding, a new series of trains were introduced including the famous high speed train, the Intercity 125.

British Rail IV

The 1980s saw the start of the penultimate chapter of BR's existence. Five brands started to replace different parts of the company; ScotRail for Scottish rail passenger journeys, Inter-City for long-distance passenger journeys, Network SouthEast for mainly commuter journeys to London, Regional Railways for the remaining passenger journeys, and Railfreight for all freight transport.

As the century drew to a close, there were further splits of BR into 'shadow companies', ahead of privatisation.
