Similarities with L.A. Noire and Mafia II
Can anyone find somethings similar with LA Noire & Mafia II?
One thing I noticed is that during the mission The Driver's Seat there's a receipt for a live hog from Riverside slaughterhouse. Now in Mafia II Riverside is an area where Clemente Co. Slaughterhouse is located.
As well a alot of cars and some music such as a song called "Sing, sing, sing" done by Benny Goodman, but has a big band in Mafia II rather than a clarinet in the Noire's version.

Keep your hands where I can see them or I'll be forced to redecorate the stucco with your entrails.

RE: Similarities with L.A. Noire and Mafia II
interesting topic, actually the details and models in LA Noire are more accurate than Mafia II, the railroad trains in Mafia II are a strange mix of European Textures (the box cars are way off for US types), and the engines fairly close but none have accurate textures for the era, tho i did see a correct Penn Central livery on a train in an official screenshot..... LA Noire HAS cola ads but none for Coke actually, and most of the cars are right on the money, as opposed to Mafia II which are named odd things, but it is an interesting comparison.

Well Like GTA due to copyright they can't do use real brands (as you most likely already know). Dunno how they got the licensing for the cars in LA Noire. You seem to focus on the trains though, a lot!
