History Of The Logos
Throughout the seasons Locomotive Wanderers have changed thier logos during thier TM time. From old school to a more modernized glam. Locomotive Wanderers had a Locomotive train that represents the team. Strangely enough the colors resemble a crest of Plymouth Argyle.
Even thought the manager is not a Plymouth fan, he always wanted the club's crest to be rather unique than any other.
Team Name,Team Kit and the Sponsor
Current Season 34 Home Kit
Locomotive Wanderers Kit is a traditional dark green with white, they are known to make smart basic kits, apparently the dark green colour came from when manager Alex Hughes came up with the colour scheme based off an old Russian locomotive
Season 34 Away Kit
tram which was dark green and white, thus this where the original name Locomotive Trammers first came from when they first existied in TM.
Hughes then decided to revamp the club to a more suitable name which was turned into "Locomotive United"; the name then became problematic since the manager supports a real life team Bolton Wanderers and decided to change the team name once more into "Locomotive Wanderers".
To keep the tradition of his beloved club he even represented the logo as an almost identical logo of "BWFC" to "LWFC", the mascot of the team seen on the logo is Ryan the Roo, a footballing kangaroo to keep the young visitors entertained whilst the players warm up for matches.
Liquidation and Retirement[]
On June 2nd 2014, it was announced that the Locomotive Wanderers Football Club would be closed down after speculation of the manager Alex Hughes deciding to retire on football management. Even though it was a tough decision to make, the club had no choice but to completely shutdown and demolish thier beloved stadium.
The staff and board members of the club were basically unhappy with the progress with the club's recent progression and past failures that they had during the time. On this day from the starting week, the board decided to sack Alex Hughes and follow on by liquidating the club.
Who knows where Alex will be at the time but for all we know he'll be long forgotten after a near 20 season stint with the club.
