This was a "convention" used by NewGRFs which exploited string colour bleeding.

Motivation / Problem
Railtype and roadtype NewGRFs used to be able to exploit string colour bleeding to influence the colour of the speed limit in the string.
Mostly they set it to yellow. Since string colour bleeding is no longer possible, this trick no longer works.
Description
Make the game display all rail and road type speed limit text in yellow, to continue the "tradition"...
Limitations
Not really necessary, but I had a stash lying around...
