Surprise!  The John Bull train on the original Camden and Amboy Railroad line.  Totally unexpected!
This print was originally created in the 1840s to feature the Greek Revival bank in the center, later the offices of New Jersey Senator Diane Allen. When I first restored the original and dropped in the new copy in a nod to the new light rail train and hung it in the window, train buffs flipped out because it also featured an almost entirely unknown representation of the beloved John Bull train, now in finer dress and on display in the Smithsonian.
Some years back we bought several historic properties in Burlington, New Jersey and moved upriver for a few years. I spent considerable energy trying to convince my friends to come up and help me buy up the town and transform it into a groover's riverside paradise. 15 years later, that transformation is happening.  OK, so I'm good at other things.  Timing?  Sometimes not so on the mark!
Anyway, I set up my studio in a little circa 1800 storefront next to the amazing late 1700s Burlington Quaker Meeting House, which replaced a smaller octagonal late 1600s meeting house. Across the street was a big ass McCrory's 5 & 10, empty, with a very broad expanse of storefront windows.
When the state and taxpayers of New Jersey agreed to put a light rail through town along the same rail bed that had carried trains in the 1830s, I got the town all worked up to have an appropriate whoopin' and hollerin' celebration. In anticipation of that I started to gather raw images for a show to fill up all the McCrory's windows, on my own, and digitally restored, printed, mounted and hung a pretty happenin' display of train, trolley and bus images, all New Jersey related, covering 1840s to the 1940s.
This print was part of that exhibition, and now available to the public.
