Description
Colorized photo from 1890
Original title: West Virginia, Western Station
Photographer: Detroit Publishing
Location: West Virginia
Try as I might, I could not find where this place was located. The station is in West Virginia, its the western station. The train is a West Virginia & Pittsburgh, maybe an expert could find the location. There were no postcards, I'm not even sure why they took this, other than they maybe were dropped off there.
I do believe the building was a light color, and it was at least 2 toned, I chose yellow because its pretty. I'm pretty sure the locomotive is a color they may have used. The tank part was very shiny, I would almost say it was made of brass, but I just don't think so. I gave it some blue reflection.
I colored in the guy with the top hat to look like The Penguin from the original batman, mostly tinted the hat a little more purple. He really does look like him. I think of all the people he is the time traveler, there is often one in many pictures. Either he came from the past, or over dressed from the future. People just didn't wear top hats in those days, its very rare to see. In the long distant pass you would see them more often, and in Europe, I noticed they often wear them. So he's out of place no matter what.
