Sorry - not in real life (I'm sure one of you will prove me wrong there!!!) but as I was watching a video about the Transpennine Route upgrade I had to pause the video and get a screenshot. ... And my glasses.

Lo and behold, a mockup of what will be the new platforms at Huddersfield station appears to show a young couple (man and woman) both wearing skirts. I will attach and you can tell me that my eyes need more testing!!!

The man has short hair and what looks like facial hair.

Wonder if the person who did the computer drawings wanted to see more men in skirts!!!

I the picture could be showing a man in a skirt or maybe some of the very wide legged short pants that have been mistaken for skirts before.

I could probably find it - but could you post the link to it?

AI not accurate, or was it influenced?

Perhaps, but the whole sequence looks fake.

It is - it's an architectural 3D rendering. I don't know how the software inserts people - if you've seen any 3D rendering of a new building though - the people always look a bit "off".
