Re: CR logo



They had a number of different logos over the years. Take a look at my web
site for the coat of arms logo used on the chinaware (it's the background on
the home page). They also used the Australian Coat of Arms a fair bit (on
GM's, CL's, Wegmann cars etc.). The early cars had a C.R. painted on the
side as did the locomotives. When the cars were painted chocolate the C.R.
letters were placed on a oval shaped board placed on the side of each car.
