While we’re on the subject of art and artists…I have long admired Robert Karsten’s dust cover depiction of a winter scene in Bluefield for the “First Generation Diesels” book by Paul Withers and Robert Bowers. Does anyone know if any prints were ever made available of this artwork? I’ve tried Google but search did not bear fruit.

Very cool that John C.Wenrich was at Shaffers Crossing! He lived from 1894 - 1970.

Here's some information for him on an o gauge forum with links to some details. His father was a locomotive engineer.
