NR Brunel

Station sign at New Malden railway station in NR Brunel typeface

The NR Brunel typeface is the Network Rail standard for signing at Network Rail managed stations.[1]

This font is an evolution of the Brunel typeface designed by a specialist typeface design company, The Foundry, for Railtrack[2] in 1999 and adopted initially by Network Rail.[3]

It was recommended as a new national standard for station signs in a 2009 report commissioned by the Secretary of State for Transport,[4] and was adopted by South West Trains and East Midlands Trains for their station signage.
