There also appears to be a small model:

Thanks for promoting my photo. ;-)

I finally got round to going to this little display (somewhat
overshadowed by the larger, brighter cupcake stand next to it), and
took a few close-up pics of my own. Obviously I know that this isn't a
scale model of an actual proposed train, but just from a firm of
designers, but I had a few observations on the model, FWIW:

This pic seems to confirm the absence of a driver's cab:

Perhaps that's just one end of the rolling stock?

It's the driving end.

Noted.


The attendant is shown in the passenger saloon.

This is supposed to be a Heathrow-bound Piccadilly Line train, but I
see no space for luggage:

Early days. It really does, however, look like at 38TS Mk II

Also, it doesn't have the standard Tube livery. I wonder if this is
just the designers indulging themselves, or is TfL contemplating a new
livery for the new trains?

Indulgence, I'm guessing.

They were commissioned by TfL, so it would be odd that they seemingly
ignored TfL's current livery.

I don't know, then.


Where are the wine pictures from, BTW? I myself am partial to Rioja.

Bodegas Marqués de Riscal, Laguardia.

It's probably one of my favourite wines, though I am by far no connoiseur.
