"Now the word" Zhenjiang "in the railway station has a historical origin. If it is changed into a unified logo after transformation, it will lose its sense of history. It's a pity. "
Netizen "54hart" posted that it was awkward to find that the original word "Zhenjiang" had been replaced after seeing the transformation renderings. "In order to be unified and convenient, the new railway stations all use unified fonts, but I still hope that Zhenjiang will not be stereotyped and leave some unique marks of its own." The emotion of "54 Hart" has attracted the attention of many citizens. Many netizens expressed their hope to keep the original word "Zhenjiang". Netizen "Jia Jian" said that the original word has personality and a sense of history. If you change to a unified official script, you will lose your personality.

The reporter contacted the construction unit China Railway Construction Engineering Group Co., Ltd., and Zhou, the person in charge, said that the railway station sign was designed in a unified way, but it could reflect the voice of the citizens to the design department.
