What medium are you using? I like this - good color choices, and excellent work on the smoke and clouds.

I like it! Nicely done!

Thanks!
I work with oil on canvas.

Looks more like the dead of winter than autumn, but no matter the tittle it's a great painting!

My first thought was the line from Game of Thrones with dual meanings: "Winter's coming." It conveys the twilight of steam in a powerful and nostalgic way to me.
Very nice work.

Nice!!! I love the depth shown by the buildings. I agree... shows double meaning of the winter of the steam era. Nicely done!!
Re: Railroad art - Tyson Rayles - 03-18-2016
Another great painting! How about a diesel in the springtime or in Autumn with all the great fall colors!

Beautifully done.
Oil on canvas has to be especially difficult to get the details that you've got. Thanks for sharing your work with us.

This hangs above my fireplace. It was done by my friend when he was working in Holland in 1972.
