Yes, UP has every right in the world to charge for the use of their logo. The also have every right in the world to charge for the use of the logos of companies that they bought/merged with, assuming they have the rights to the trademark. If you have the time you could probably look up the owners of any logo of any railway or any company for that matter at the website of the US Patent and Trademark Office - http://www.uspto.gov/ <br /> <br />As to what UP is doing, I don't forsee many negative affects from this move. Model railroaders will either have to pay more for UP stuff, or just not buy it. The only thing UP is doing is setting themselves up to be written out of model railroading.
