GBR uniform - Is this real or a joke?

[TUC]

Genuine question.Are the photos circulating of the alleged planned GBR uniform a joke or for real?-because I have to say I think they look hideous.

That picture is quite clearly AI-generated.

 

[godfreycomplex]

Yeah nah that isn’t real

 

[TUC]

I can see why that might be the case, but it is circulating online as part of a set alongside the genuine photos released yesterday.

Artificial "intelligence". Look at the BR logo.

It’s a wind up. Drivers most certainly wouldn’t be wearing a uniform looking anything like that.

Deserves moving to the bad AI images thread

Needs expenditure. DfT computer says no.

 

[Russel]

Wouldn't need a Hi-Vis with it though!

 

[RPM]

Naa, it's fake. This is the real one.

Because someone thought it would be funny to trick people by mixing it into the real ones evidently. But it is very much a fake, and a poor fake at that.

It is most definitely a wind up and wasn't included in the images shared in the DfT announcement.

Bold of anyone to believe the uniform will be anything but navy blue with some red around it. They aint spending money on multiple colours.

I can see the station uniforms being a bit more distinctive, but you're right, it'll just be a big red coat with GBR written on the back.

This one might be a bit breezy around certain parts when out on the platforms!

Artificial "intelligence". Look at the BR logo.

Like a mash-up of intercity swallow and double arrow!

Somewhere in my trunk of ties I think I have one that will match this uniform. I think its an old Chiltern Trains one.

The livery on the train behind the people doesn’t match the official GBR one - this livery has horizontal stripes, which the official one doesn’t.
