"47 new trains". Is that an equal, smaller or larger number than the
current Victoria Line fleet?

Unfortunately it lacks the 92 stock's curved windows, so you won't be able
to tip your head back and look at the clouds... ;-)

"artistic rendering" they say. Perhaps they mean "artists rendering".

Although the shiny platform surface shows considerable artistic licence.

On the Victoria?

The side windows seem very small indeed, a return to more of a 'padded cell'
concept perhaps?

Seriously though, those windows are very small. They look like they
might be small enough to make it a bit tricky to see what station
you're at.

I'm more concerned about how that car that's about to hit the driver's
cab got into the station. :-)

I'm not sure. Because there are two windows between the doors on most
Tube stock, and there is only one here, I'm more inclined to think
they are long (horizontally) rather than narrow (vertically) - unless
these vehicles are noticeably shorter than the current ones.
