I can’t work out whether the A3 looks good in crimson lake or not!
 

Come to think of it the door on the carriage looks rather odd too. 

 

 

Google 'Victor McLindon images' for tons more of his works!

You can't say he doesn't know his market - https://www.partsight.org.uk/happy-and-glorious-by-victor-mclindon

He is certainly very prolific! Looking through his output produces a number of familiar scenes. Christmas and birthday cards, sent and reveived!

If it's conveying Royalty, it needs a headlamp on the top bracket as a well as the row of three on the buffer beam.

 

Got to admit the woodpigeon looks very realistic though.

I don’t think this is a real image.  Otherwise it would clearly say that’s it’s been painted from a HST window shedded somewhere in Luton!

 

Some key pointers to its deepfake status: 

1) can we be certain it’s the uk without the double arrow sign?

2) theres no running in board in western region colours?

3) given it’s obviously wartime, where are the military uniforms and gas masks?  Preferably those smart black uniforms with the nice red and white armbands I sometimes see people dressed in at 1940s weekends?

4). No Greggs on the platform

 

I think there might be some other mistakes but I can’t be sure.

Marketing department, “hello Victor we’ve had the proofs of your new painting but we’re wondering, could you add a ginger kid in a Harry Potter car to help try and shift a few more units?”

 

“and while your at it can you make the red car in the foreground out of perspective and scale to the rest of the picture? you can, brilliant”

Hornby, well Rivarossi, do make an Italian 740 class 2-8-0. Quite why one would be in Greater Manchester is another matter though!

a Castle loco passing Sydney Gardens in Bath.  Jolly realistic, apart from the red livery and the LMS on the tender...

The 'artists' displaying symptoms of an advanced case of Rowling syndrome, of which the first sign is an inability to remember from which London terminus red steam locomotives departed for Scotland.

Mirror universe Altrincham with the location of the signal box! They still drive on the left though! 😄
