The 'Liner

On a brisk afternoon in the mid-1950's, the silence of the day in Southern Wisconsin is broken by a blur of Salmon and Turquoise.

That blur is the Electroliner, one of 2 built for the North Shore in 1941 by the St. Louis Car Company. The pair of trains made 5 round trips a day between Chicago and Milwaukee at the blistering time of 1 hour and 50 minutes. They ran from 1941 until abandonment of the North Shore on January 21, 1963. Both trainsets are preserved today.

As a side note, this is the first artwork I've done where I've purposely left off the lineart. I may or may not do more like this in the future.

Until next time,
Zach

New Stuff

Some new stuff has cropped up in my art folder in the past few weeks.

First is a CA&E Pullman. Why? Because Pullmans are awesome.

Second is this, which I have rediscovered, (Again). It's another pullman car, except this one's a CSL streetcar. This was about the second drawing I started on the tablet and I never got around to finishing it. Someday, I WILL finish it, I promise!
