Featuring the artwork of D. Tom Conboy

Rural Rails Crossing is a collection of my thoughts about the experience of painting rural and railroad scenes. Watercolor is my medium of choice, and my painting style is impressionistic. I am not trying to render a photographic image of the place, but to capture the "mood" of the location.

L&N Depot at Nashville, Illinois


Title: L&N Depot at Nashville, Illinois*
Size: 7 x 10 inches
Medium: Watercolor
Original/Print: Original








This painting was done from a photo of the depot I had taken in 2006. The depot has changed quite a bit since I last photographed it back in 2006. Someone had started repainting the depot a red color, but had not finished it the last time I visited Nashville. It has been almost two years since I last visited the depot, so the new paint job may be finished.

The rail line no longer serves passengers, but trains still pass by the depot on there way to Addieville, Illinois.
