The Tina Turner Train? I would have loved to have seen that!

The Village Voice had a full page center spread sometime between '77-'79 with landscape photos of grafitti murals spread over an entire car side.
They were well drawn and elaborate.

I did not come on earlier in this thread, but I also assume it's been discussed before - how obvious it is, that the idea of car wrapping commercials
probably was directly influenced by those car length muraals/ tag ups.

Speaking of legit "murals" might also want to check out the dinosaur designs on the Isle of Wight 1938 Tube Stock:
