I hope they are not going to collide Holger. Will never be able to beat a good steam engine in my view.

bunch of stories! Holger but very inventive and nicely drawn and painted .can see your engineering background with the precision of your drawing

I agree with David about your drawing Holger and have mentioned it before. I think there car will get out of the way. Apart from that the who image seems kind of surrealistic.

Adele, David, John, thanks for the comments. Don´t worry the car will pass by the loco which is waiting. Near Ennepetal there really is a tunnel under the main line that is shared between road and a secondary line which is operated by Diesels nowadays. As surrealistic this might look, the general arrangement is there in reality. This strangeness may be a reason why I painted it. I missed out the warning signs and the traffic lights.

Nice Holger, you have improved in colours and technique. I think you should give up your professional subjects. North Rhine Westphalia is a wonderful land full of beautiful country for painters. I look forward a beautiful view of the Rhein. Tschus Holger!

Thanks Cesare River Rhine? No Problem, have a look at the next entry.
