Locomotive Mural

Herndon, Virginia



This artwork graces a pizza restaurant. The number 1030 on the train matches the street address.

This place is part of a chain that has a tradition of murals. I see they show some other artwork on their site.

  1. Love those train murals. There is one here in Ashland on side of building.

  2. The train caught my eye because the artist extended the lines out past the flat surface on which the mural was drawn. It actually gave the train movement. It was impressive. I'm not sure how I should feel about the sculpture, though.

  4. Very nice mural Linda, as Elizabeth says it looks at if it's moving. The sculpture must have taken ages to put together with all those bits and pieces of metal.
