rynoz10 Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 Old name. New team.Something about the rendering of the train bothers me.I agree. I think the train is rendered properly (I think it is supposed to be a skate) but it looks like it is tipping over to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JQK Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 Solid identity package for a minor-league hockey team. That secondary train whistle is very nice... Stay Tuned Sports Podcast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burmy Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 As someone who frequently rode on the both the Amtrak and Metra lines, I give my seal of approval to that identity package! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illwauk Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I know it's the same name, but most CCSLCers couldn't even name more than a couple WBL teams. I think it's possible that they were named Express because they're trying to draw fans from a bunch of planned communities alongside a huge tollway.It's definitely one of the nicer identity packages I've seen in awhile.

tigerslionspistonshabs Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 Solid. As much as I dislike singular names, I can let this slide. I like the train engine/skate blade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sodboy13 Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 The angle of the train suggests the locomotive, much like the franchise, will be off the rails shortly.I recall the Cincinnati RailRaiders having a similar issue.

DustDevil61 Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I'm not a huge fan of the main Train logo as it is. It seems to be leaning too much. If they straightened it out, it'd look much better.I do like that Alternate Whistle logo, however; I'm normally no fan of cartoony, inanimate objects possessing a face, but that logo works, and it's something that I've never seen before.
