EXT. TRACKSIDE AN ABANDONED FREIGHT TRAIN CAR. DUSK. 

Two people dressed in all black with hoodies and backpacks stand in front of the train car. VORTEX scopes the area while PIXLS investigates the car. 

PIXLS

(Quietly.)

Hey, Vor, check this out. I think I might be able to get this open.

PIXLS fidgets with a flimsy, rusted lock. It snaps in two. VORTEX joins her. 

Vortex

(Sternly.)

Hurry. Get inside.

CUT TO:

INT. INSIDE AN ABANDONED FREIGHT CAR. DUSK.

VORTEX (CONT'D)

Alright, Pix. You ready to smoke this fat blunt?

VORTEX sets his backpack on the floor, sits down, and pulls out a bag of weed and a pack of White Grape Games.

PIXLS

Yeeaaaah. Hurry and roll that shit.

PIXLS puts her backpack down. She pulls her phone out of her pocket and sits across from VORTEX, leaning against the inner wall of the car. 

INSTAGRAM opens on her screen. There is a new message.

PIXLS

(Concerned.)

Hey, uh, Vor… You’re gonna want to check this out.

Vortex

(He finishes rolling the blunt and looks up at her as he sparks it.)

What is it?

PIXLS

Orion messaged us? And he wants to paint?!

He coughs on the blunt smoke and passes it to PIXLS.

VORTEX

(Out of breath.)

I’m sorry - what was that?

She scoots closer to him and shows him the phone.

PIXLS

(Concerned.)

I said - Orion messaged us. He wants to paint with us.

VORTEX

Oh.

They are both quiet for a moment.

VORTEX (CONT'D)

(Realizing.)

OH.

He starts packing his bag back up.

VORTEX (CONT'D)

When? Tell him we can paint tonight but it might be late if that’s cool. 

PIXLS types her message to ORION.

VORTEX (CONT'D)

(Impatient.)

Well, what are you waiting for? Let’s go, we’ve got to get to the car.

PIXLS

(Defensive.)

Hey, wait just a second. You didn’t even give me time to message him back.

CUT TO:

EXT. TRACKSIDE A FREIGHT TRAIN LINE. NIGHT.

VORTEX and PIXLS are walking trackside back to the lot they parked in.

PIXLS (CONT'D)

He said it’s cool but how late? Let him know when we’re in CITY and he’ll let us know where to meet him.

VORTEX 

Well, we’re about an hour’s walk from the car, and then it’s a 30-minute drive to CITY so tell him about 2 hours.

PIXLS 

Got it.

CUT TO:

INT. INSIDE VORTEX’S CAR ON THE HIGHWAY. NIGHT.

VORTEX drives and PIXLS is adjusting her camera’s settings.

VORTEX

Alright, can you text him and let him know we’re almost there? 15 minutes? 

She shuts her camera off and slips it in her backpack. In its place, she takes her phone out.

PIXLS

Yeah, I got it.

Only a moment goes by before she has a message back.

CUT TO:

INT. INSIDE VORTEX’S CAR IN A TAKEOUT PARKING LOT. LATE NIGHT. 

VORTEX sits alert in his seat, as PIXLS slumps comfortably in the passenger seat. She is looking at her phone.

VORTEX

This is the place. Do you think he’ll show? 

PIXLS

(Sighs.)

Maybe.

She looks out her passenger side window and quickly sits up.

PIXLS

Hey, who’s that?

VORTEX looks over PIXLS out of her window.

VORTEX

Looks like that’s probably him.

A MAN walks up to the passenger side of the car and taps on PIXL’s window. VORTEX rolls the window down slightly.

VORTEX

Hey - Orion?

ORION

Yeah, man. What’s good? Y’all been having a good night?

VORTEX

Yeah, we’ve been good. Hey, man, it might be easier if you get in on this side.

ORION walks to the driver’s rear side of the car and gets in.

VORTEX

What’s good?

ORION

What’s good, what’s good… If y’all want to get going I’ve got a spot we can hit.

VORTEX and PIXLS perk up at the sound of a wall to paint.

VORTEX

Hell yeah, let’s go. Direct the way.

CUT TO:

INT. INSIDE VORTEX’S CAR, DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. NIGHT.

VORTEX drives and ORION gives him directions from the back seat. PIXLS is distracted on her phone.

ORION

Alright, it’s coming up right down here. 

(He points.)

Right around that bend. You can park right over there.

VORTEX parks the car.

CUT TO:

EXT. OUTSIDE VORTEX’S CAR. NIGHT.

VORTEX, PIXLS, and ORION all get out of the car and grab their backpacks. A short walk away, there is a long BRICK WALL that is illuminated by some campus parking lot lamps.

Westchester Avenue Station in The Bronx, New York The Westchester Avenue station was constructed in 1908 to expand commuter rail service into the Bronx, Westchester County, and Connecticut by the New York, New Haven, and Hartford Railroad (NY, NH & H). Architect Cass Gilbert, who had recently completed the lauded U.S. Custom House in Lower Manhattan, was tasked with designing 12 stations, though not all of the proposed stations were built. The Westchester Avenue station consisted of three sections: a tall, central entry hall, a shorter waiting room suspended over the tracks to the east, and a small west porch. The entrance is ornamented with glazed, polychrome terra cotta. In his later 1910 design of the Woolworth Building, Gilbert again utilized terra cotta detailing. Several factors hampered the success of commuter service on this line: the amount of debt incurred during the expansion, a terminus in the Bronx not Manhattan, and later competition with less expensive subway service. The NY, NH, and H discontinued service to local stations in 1931 although a subsidiary, the New York, Westchester, and Boston rail lines, continued to make scheduled stops. Both railroads eventually declared bankruptcy and on December 31, 1937, the last train stopped at Westchester Avenue. Amtrak now owns the property, which operates a portion of the Northeast Corridor in the right-of-way. Amtrak lists the asset as a "structure in need of demolition." The trackside platforms and stairs have been removed. The west porch was demolished, and replaced by an exit from the Sheridan Expressway. Graffiti removal has bleached the colors from the terra cotta on the lower part of the entry hall, which is not to say that the building is free of graffiti. Ivy often covers much of the structure. The Westchester Avenue station is neither listed on the National Register of Historic Places nor is it a New York City landmark, though local community activists hope to restore and repurpose the building. https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/westchester-avenue-station

Alfa Romeo to run 'Art Car' livery at Dutch Grand Prix | 2023 Dutch Grand Prix

Alfa Romeo will run the ‘Art Car’ livery they revealed earlier this year at the Dutch Grand Prix. The Swiss-based team launched its art car, designed by graffiti artist ‘Boogie’, in January. It has already been displayed at a series of public events and the letter-filled livery has been added to the official Formula 1 driving game F1 23. The ‘Art Car’ itself will appear at Zandvoort this weekend in the circuit’s Fan Zone, then sold at auction to raise money for charity Save the Children, but more notably features of its design will be incorporated into Alfa Romeo’s garage in the pit lane: the cars will feature updated liveries and the team’s trackside infrastructure will be changed to have a matching visual identity to the cars. Alfa Romeo described the design which will appear on Valtteri Bottas and Zhou Guanyu’s cars this weekend as “a tribute livery to the Art Car, emblazoned with Boogie’s distinctive art.” It issued the image above which closely resembles the design shown earlier this year. The team’s garage panelling, garage nameboards and drivers’ suits will also be revised to complement the new look. “This project has brought Alfa Romeo F1 Team Stake closer to the fans in each phase of its development,” said team representative Alessandro Alunni Bravi. “It has been an exciting, ground-breaking journey the team has been proud to undertake, alongside trusted partners and an inspiring artist.” It is the second race in a row that Alfa Romeo have revised their livery, having added neon green elements to its usual black and red livery for the Belgian Grand Prix. That too was made available on F1 23, as the use of one-off or themed liveries become more frequent in F1. Pictures: Alfa Romeo livery Alfa Romeo presented their art car livery earlier this year, with some differences to the sponsor logos compared to the version above.
