Welcome
to the Railroad Gallery!
Thanks
so much for your interest in my railroad art. These drawings and paintings
reflect some of the trains that have touched our lives. My art represents
trains scenes in the mountains and plains of Montana and North America
for collectors to remember the rails at home and at work.
For
many years, watching trains and hiking the tracks has been our main family
hobby. My grandmother worked for the Great Northern taking supplies to
locomotives during World War II. My husband enjoyed trains all his life.
His grandfather worked as a signal maintainer for the Southern Pacific.
I
am an art adjunct professor at Carroll College and have had the honor of
showing my art in museums, art galleries and publications nationwide. "Roll-By
in the Rockies," a Milwaukee Road painting is the featured artwork on the
Union Tank Car April 2002 calendar. My artwork is included in the Washington
State Arts Commission's Permanent Collection. Recently I enjoyed being
a guest artist on the Smithsonian's Art Train.
I
hope you enjoy my railroad art as much as I have enjoyed creating it for
you,
Linda
McCray, Montana Railroad Artist
Notes
from a Few Customers

indeed your art made a very special gift to give and everyone was very
appreciative! Linda, I can't thank you enough for your quick turnaround
on the order."

"Your
drawings of 'Live Wires' is a great historical rendition of one of the
stories told by my father, a career man with the Milwaukee Road. Stationed
in Milwaukee, he nevertheless spent much time under 'Live Wires' on Lines
West. You definitely have the touch on keeping the Milwaukee Road Alive."

"Thanksgiving,
1979" was all I had hoped for and more. Spare and lean, nothing superfluous,
it is truly evocative, snowy railroad scene, a sense of stillness, even
loneliness, it goes beyond technical proficiency. A perfect example of
an intangible know as the artist eye. Congratulations! I can hardly wait
to order my next print."
