Prossima Fermata, Next Stop edit

Can the hive mind help with a question. On the 27th April, an anonymous editor added the text Prossima Fermata, Next Stop as the caption for the ATM logo in the infobox, with no explanation as to why a bilingual next stop announcement in Italian and English made an appropriate caption for a logo. I removed this, with a comment requesting that if it was reinserted, a explanatory comment be logged. A different anonymous user (or perhaps the same one using a different IP) reverted my change with the comment:

This is the ATM slogan, it is played on their trains and is visible on their livery

Now I'm well aware that the ATM (along with much of the rest of the Italian-speaking transit world) make Prossima Fermata announcements on their trains, in order to inform passengers of the next stop. I seem to remember this being done bilingually too, although I might be mixing that up with other places. But it has never occurred to me that this was a slogan, or indeed anything other than a utilitarian announcement. Nor do I remember seeing it on anything that might be described as a livery.

However I do have to point out that my last visit was three years ago, so things may have changed or slipped my memory. I've tried Googling, but can see nothing that helps. Is the anonymous editor correct, or has (s)he perhaps simply not realised that Prossima Fermata is the Italian for Next Stop. -- chris_j_wood (talk) 12:23, 15 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

I also doubt this is an official slogan. ATM does have bilingual announcements in the trains, but it is irrelevant for this. I think it should be removed. --Ita140188 (talk) 02:26, 16 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
