The station is yellow and there are differences in the details both on the station and in the background. The painting in the book does have Dean Ellis' signature. If the painting depicted here was not done by Ellis, than it is at least a derivative of one of his paintings.

The image has that bright 50s or 60s vibe to me. When I first saw the picture it reminded me of Vincent Di Fate’s work or maybe Chesley Bonestell. The image has that bright 50s or 60s vibe to me.
