Commentary

The railroad dining cars re-used as a McDonald's reminded me of riding trains back and forth across country when I was in college. One particularly memorable run was on the Santa Fe between Chicago and Los Angeles. I decided to try recreating one of the cars in Santa Fe livery. The shell of the car was made from blurred lines with a bevel and chrome layer style. The livery colors were picked off a stock image of a Santa Fe locomotive. The people and the mesa in the reflection are all stock images. The telegraph poles were made from scratch using filled selections and bevel layer styles. I had two different versions of this, so I'm trying something a little different and letting both versions show -- just roll your mouse over the image to see the other version.
