[edit] Colours supplied by template

I'd like to suggest that where there is a template to provide a colour, the explicit value of the colour should not be listed here. Example: I'm suggesting that

should be replaced by

(* [[National Express East Anglia]] - <font color="#{{NXEA colour}}">█</font> #{{tl|NXEA colour}})

This will encourage use of the template (and if anyone really needs to know the RGB value, they can open the template.--Dr Greg (talk) 13:03, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

Fair point. I've made a few modifications to the page to try and encourage their use (but I've kept the RGB values in anyway). --RFBailey (talk) 01:31, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Cross Country

It is not the same shade of red.

compared to

Ok, they are slightly different (but at a glance.....!). But my main point still stands. Why is not XC pink/move/purple? Btline (talk) 15:18, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

Don't know really. Simply south (talk) 17:13, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
