Riding The Red Rocket

8 x 10 oil on panel
I love trains. There is something romantic about them that survives from a different era. And in spite of the traffic jams and some discomfort, the Toronto Streetcar still maintains that special something we love about trains. Torontos' streetcars will be chaniging between 2014 and 2018. I don't like change, but I think I can adjust to liking them as well.

Gorgeous. I like the really old streetcars too. But the streetcars do have the feeling of trains -- possibility -- moving from a to b,
the romance of going somewhere, even just home.
