| The sun is setting on the old Industrial Revolution and the Digital World is ascending. Industrial sites have begun to take on a certain romantic quality in spite of their typically toxic environment. Visually, the funky old structures have a human quality that is rapidly disappearing.

These places are served by railroads. There is such nostalgia for the railroads that it has spawned its own art genre, the Train Painting. Boxcars turns the genre upside down by focusing on the lowly boxcar rather than the locomotives. We see the gradual phasing out of Boxcars and the advent of container trains. The multitude of historic rail lines and logos have been merged into megacorporations. I have chosen to picture a variety of western lines that could still be seen on the rails and in the yards in my lifetime. One can anticipate the day that boxcars go the way of the caboose.
