The Network SouthEast Railway Society was dissolved last year, leaving only the holding company (THE NETWORK SOUTH EAST RAILWAY SOCIETY LIMITED) to take care of 421753 (the original "Chris Green" EMU).

Who owns the rights to the NSE brand now? Is it still the holding company? If not, who did Southeastern ask to get the rights for the NSE livery on 465908?
