Super Sprinter

Super Sprinter
It’s not often that I show wall murals on here but I make an exception for this that depicts a subject close to my heart: railways. This is a Class 155 Super Sprinter belonging to the Northern, Trans Pennine Express company, almost in the Ukrainian flag colours. The building that it is painted on stands just in front of the main Rochdale to Manchester line in an area known as Castleton, Rochdale. These exact trains currently run up and down this line.

Enjoy full size and have a good week.

Our thoughts reach out to Ukraine.

I appreciate you showing us this one Herb, as I know you are not keen on wall art. This is very cleverly painted to get the illusion of the train coming towards us, straight from the tunnel!

All the best, Rosa.

Thanks for this Rosa. The art does show us a bit of the real life at this spot and it is very well done. I thought the use of that doorway in this fashion was a stroke of genius. - Maybe my attitude to street art is changing :)

All the best to you too. Herb

Hi Herb
A wonderful and interesting picture, which I like very much!
Very nice composition in the mural
I think the Ukrainian colours are getting very popular everywhere now!
Shame the delinquent youths had to vandalise it!
Best Wishes, HWW, a nice week ahead, and stay safe!!

Thanks Peter. It may be possible that the other delinquent youths graffiti was there before this painting. Glad you liked it all the same.

Now this is an impressive piece of street art...........the artist is obviously very talented. I like the colours and details.

A great capture Herb...............love it!

Herb Riddle club has replied to Keith Burton club
I thought you might like this Keith as it is right up your ally, so to speak. There was a full host of flower scenes on here too, obviously by the same artist but as they were on the other side of the building, the light on those was poor.

Cheers for the vote of approval. Herb
