Pick Up at Okawville
Pick Up at Okawville is a departure from my usual paintings because it represents artwork from another region. It clearly says mid-West with it's massive grain elevator and flat landscape, but it represents the work performed by railroaders everyday throughout this Country. The scene could be just about anywhere east of the Rockies, but in this case it is in the small town of Okawville, IL on what was the Louisville and Nashville's line from St. Louis to Evansville, IN. The L&N's through route to St. Louis is gone but the grain elevator at Okawville is served by the Evansville Western Railway. The original painting as well as limited edition prints are now available. See Diesel Locomotive Gallery for more details.
Penn Division Special 2nd Edition
The first edition of Penn Division Special is nearly sold out. As such, we have decided to release this popular print in a smaller 11' x 14" size. Many of our customers have requested some of my more popular prints in a smaller size and because the 11" x 13" prints are nearly all gone, we thought that this print would be a good candidate.
To order a copy of Penn Division Special 2nd Edition, see D&H RR Gallery
Along the Claremont Branch
My latest painting features a classic view of a Boston and Maine Railroad Mogul on the former Claremont and Concord Branch passing the covered bridge at Waterloo, NH. The painting was inspired by a photograph taken at this location by noted railroad photographer R. Philip Hastings. Hastings's view was from the opposite side of the stream of a Northbound train with the bridge in the background. The bridge and dam still exist, but the Claremont Branch is long gone. The original painting as well as limited edition prints are now available. See Boston & Maine RR Gallery for more details.
