Hello and welcome to the forum.. :)

As far as I know (and  I used to travel on their trains), FGW link belonged to FGW after they won the franchise from Thames trains.. I assume they named it that to differentiate it from their long distance services at the time..

It was legally a separate franchise owned by rather than FGW.
