Intriguing to note the operational name and logo reflects English usage

May be able to switch?

That second one has Georgian Railway in English by the door (and the Latin alphabet logo), but the first link shows the railway name in the Georgian alphabet. I?d guess it might be different on different parts of the train.

Several integrated rail companies or rail operators around the world use
an English-language name, such as JR and Korail, respectively in Japan
and South Korea.
In Greece, the main passenger operator is Hellenic Train.

That is, FS bought TrainOSE and renamed it to Hellenic Train?
On first glance, I wonder if that was a good idea, considering what I understand to be the Greek rail network's parlous state.

And they even sent tilting high-speed trainsets and rebuilt them:

It went much worse later.
