The artwork depicts the band's lead vocalist Fred Durst in a cartoon-style animation wearing his trademark red New York Yankees cap.

As realistic as the image is, it was mocked up by West Midlands Railway's social media team to promote the upcoming gig. 

The train company then posted a photo of the graffiti on their social media, joking that the mural matches their orange and purple trains. 

The awesome artwork was painted on the side of a West Midlands Railway train.

The post read: "We’re not usually one to tolerate graffiti on our trains, but even we admit that the Limp Bizkit graphics match our fleet! 

"If you’re getting the train tonight to see Limp Bizkit in Birmingham, please don’t ‘Break Stuff’ on board, otherwise we’ll ‘Eat You Alive’! 

The nu metal band from Florida are performing tonight at the bp Pulse Live venue in Marston Green - a venue that has capacity for around 16,000 people.
