Trent Barton have the Black Cat and Go North East had the Black Cats
Trent Barton have the Red Arrow and Go North East have the Red Arrows
Trent Barton (albeit jointly operated with SC) have the Pronto and GNE also have a pronto
Plus Trent Bartons 'The threes' branded Versa 827 is named after Peter Huntley (https://flic.kr/p/iHyZro)
There is an article I linked to (may have been in the branding section), where Peter Huntley openly admitted to being 'inspired' by Trent Barton, who were in effect the company to take branding to the extent we see up and down the country.
I have added a link to the article again, rather than search through the forum.
