TfW at Llandudno Junction appear to be illiterate in both English and Welsh.

What kind of unprofessional signmaker are they using that adds the greengrocer's apostrophe?

Sign showing directions to buses and taxis with Welsh text, English text and large pictograms. In both languages there is an incorrect apostrophe included in the text: "Tacsi's" and "Taxi's".

Good luck finding Platform 2, which is in the same direction but inexplicably not on this sign.

And why is the "way out" icon rotated in that weird way?

New signs bolted over almost identical TfW ones just to add a tiny Network North Wales logo. Plus they're the wrong size so they look a mess! What a waste of public money.

TfW branded sign for Wrexham Central station with red top border and logo for "Network North Wales". Sign has been stuck over the top of an existing, larger sign, which remains partially visible as it is taller and uses a different shade of red. Close up of a Wrexham Central station sign, showing that the visible sign is a brand new metal sheet rather than a plastic vinyl overlay. The previous TfW sign, also a new metal sheet, is visible underneath, with original signage underneath that.

Twisted and bent sheet metal signs, due to mounting on a surface of protruding bolts.

Nicely finished off with a grubby pipe over the top and screwcaps not fitted.

Should have been mounted on frames like the old signs.

Railway station sign reading "Shrewsbury" in a standard Transport for Wales style of black text on white background with a red stripe at top. Manufactured from flat metal sheet, the sign is visibly bent and distorted in two places due to being mounted on a beam that has protruding bolts - one of these is just visible on the right edge. A grubby plastic water pipe covers the top edge of the sign. Decorative plastic screw covers are in place but not fitted correctly, leaving visible screws.
