This is an interesting concept, but I'm a bit concerned about the wave and top lettering being the same colour (it seems a little unbalanced maybe?). Maybe another colour all together for the lettering?

So sorry - I inadvertently listed our Society name when the logo should actually reflect the festival we run. Could you please change the wording in these logos to read "Golden Spike Days Festival"?

Thanks for the feedback. I've uploaded an alternate version.

After receiving much feedback from our board, your logo is very popular! We like the colour selection of #29 the best, but there are two concerns: 1. The 'spike' is not actually a proper spike. 2. The society name is not balanced.

I am wondering if you could do one last submission where the train is perhaps smaller, with no smoke and the words 'Golden Spike Days' around the outside with no smoke interrupting the wording. Also, if you could find a refine the spike to look more like those presented in the other logos. It must actually look like a railroad spike and this one is a bit too conceptual on that part.

One other potential addition: perhaps a maple leaf somewhere (maybe in the centre circle of the train)? This is less important than the other changes, but it is something that a number of our board members were interested in including.

Thank you for the feedback. I'll submit a revision that addresses your concerns.

Thanks! Just to clarify - we like the train as is, but I think the board wants to see the words running continuously from one side to the other. The comment most made was 'more balanced,' if that makes sense.

I'm uploading a couple versions. One keeps the smoke and the smokestack between the words, but is a bit more symmetrical than previous and the other has the train completely separate from the text. Let me know what you think, thanks.
