I've started to introduce a new infobox template for Railway companies, primarily in the UK. The template is simple, yet effective at bringing uniformity to the articles. The template allows the operator's logo to be placed on a background colour suited to the operator as well as enabling there to be an image showcasing a typical train operated by the firm and some key statistics that are of interest.

The Rail companies infobox is shown on the pages with green links below.
