Older drawing I'm still proud of, New York Central Hudson cutaway drawing, one of my college projects
When folded a certain way, this poster lets you pull all the covers off this 4-6-4

Goodness, was not expecting that new drawing to gain so much traction - Thank you all!
Been meaning to use this account more, and that's given me a lot of motivation - In the meantime, here's a recent animated film I've made

The Boone Scenic Railway's steam locomotive caught my imagination recently and I decided to have a go at caricaturing it
This JS-class engine was one of the last steam locomotive built in China, exported to the US for excursion use, and still running today

The Great Northern Railroad had one of the longest tunnels in North America, which was the domain of electric locomotives, in order to keep steam and smoke from polluting the tunnel
Older drawing from 2022(?) I realized I have neglected to share on here!

Columbus Union Station background painting I made today for future animation use
The longest part of my 2D animation productions is usually in the form of drawing backgrounds. Fortunately, trains tend to be stuck going to the same places all the time, so this should get good use

Rebecca paused in a siding one evening to allow her friend Jenny to overtake with a fast train called The 'Pokey.

Still got to do a shuttle bay and the warp engines, but, I've been enjoying this a lot. Modular, but can be hung from a wall

A new co-worker arrived at Sparky's powerplant. He's wearing her number, though this unusual stored-energy locomotive isn't a replacement for the electric steeplecab. Fred is very positive and eager, but falls asleep often
