diesel shunting locomotives

This family owned business is headed by a man who had a vision of reviving luxury train travel. From his first acquisition he has sought out locomotives and coaches that were cast aside and left to rust away. They have been painstakingly restored to their original finery and are considered fine examples of rolling stock still in service. The locomotives have been christened with names of the family. Modern times have cramped the steam engine's style and mostly electricity and diesel are used nowadays. There is however a tradition that a steam engine pulls a train in and out of their private station Capital Park. Van Gogh began his work relying on the Dutch Masters. He was intrigued by the Masters' ability to have fun with shadow and lightweight. He also found an association in the painting of common events and/or people. For instance, The Potato Eaters captures a small grouping of peasants sitting yourself down for any meal. The painting is dark, yet, light radiates from your faces.
