Default New tube trains

Yes, this mockup of new "38 Tube stock" (did anyone notice the number in
the picture?) trains seems to have rather unrealistically thin articulated
joints. The tight curves on the Picc would certainly need much thicker
bellows, allowing much more motion between carriages.


It bears more than a passing family resemblance to the old Northern
Line stock, doesn't it? Following a bit in the footsteps of the Bozza
bus...sort-of.

I imagine it hasn't gone for technical accuracy just yet.
