  I know it’s a shitpost and AI has come a long way but holy cow it still made a ton of mistakes in that image. Rails are only spiked on one side, perspective changes between the foreground and mid-ground, wrong wheel arrangement for Thomas (he’s famously an 0-6-0, which is established within the first 30 seconds of the first episode of the TV series) no vacuum breaks which Thomas should have, the white house sign can’t decide if it’s a station sign or a sign for the building (styled like a British station sign but it’s the wrong color, wrong shape and half in the grass)

  Honestly I think I’d prefer a shitty image macro of Thomas with a red tie pasted into the Whitehouse lawn

    Thank you so much for the response. It was exactly what I was expecting and love every second of it. I have a family member who is a train fan and they had a similar reaction. There is some subtlety there you did miss though.

    The image date was changed to the approximate date when Eugen Blueler published his first paper proposing the psychological concept of autism. It is also location set for Zurich, Sweden. So, it is a bit more than a shitpost and I certainly wasn’t going to burn anymore trees asking for something a little more accurate than a 2 sentence got prompt.

    Thanks again for the information!
