superb 

Seven years old it may be, but it is still a wonderful artwork indeed. Forget about the relative sizes of the houses and the train, the village nestled against the viaduct is a masterpiece in atmosphere : still in nocturnal shadow while the steel behemoth roars past, it perfectly conveys this feeling of vulnerability lonely settlements along great railroads often have.
I also like the way the painting offers a full palette of wintry feelings, from the urge to stay indoors in the face of cold and darkness to the exhilaration of sunrise on the snowy mountains.

Excellent!

wow! 

I used to draw trains that oversized as a kid. An adults mind now says it is turning too tightly though..

Very nice!!

AWESOME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BRAVO

Bravo!

Is the size mismatch intentional? Amazing piece, but it looks like the residents of those homes would be hard-pressed to even climb into one of the train cars!

nice train and background, dude
