I just though that the na e<Hillside> is good enough, and money really
should be spend on something like upgrade rolling stocks/stations
 facilities etc rather then name changes. As a user you won't get much from
a change of name. But if the money spent on facilities upgarde, users will
get benifit straight away.

National Express didn't  bother to change Bayside/Swanston and V/line to
something fancy.
