According to the photo caption it's "British Railways English Electric Class 40 No. 40112", so yes, probably a train.

Well, the engine anyway!

What about this BMC two-tone poking out of the left of the picture? Oxbridge?

It's an early pre '75 facelift 12 with chrome wing mirrors and before indicators moved to the bumper.

The Triumph is hiding behind it......

Renault 16 ,

The rear pillar is too thick for a 16 and there's no rear quarterlight. I reckon it's a 12.

[iDrive]

Dacia 1300
Aymesa Gala
Mazda 323

konark is correct - it's the Wolseley version (15/60 or 16/60 depending on year). Only the Wolseley version of the Farina-B had the two-tone paint in that scheme with the zig-zag line on the front wing. The Riley had a chrome cheat-line on the waist with a simple top/bottom colour split, as did the later MkIV MG Magnettes.

Green? That's blue, though admittedly with a "period photo" filter on it.
