TL;DR
The Skitube in Perisher, Australia, is a popular mountain rack-railway that transports skiers from Bullocks Flat to Perisher Valley and Blue Cow. After 36 years of operation, the Skitube's exterior required an update, and two artists, Mike Shankster and Arina Apostolova, were commissioned to add a colourful mural inspired by native fauna. The refurbished carriages are a sight to behold and are sure to enhance the passengers' overall experience during the winter ski season.
