J. CRAIG THORPE (B. 1948) "MISSOURIJ. CRAIG THORPE (B. 1948) "MISSOURI LOCOMOTIVE"J. Craig Thorpe (American, B. 1948) "Missouri Locomotive" Signed lower right. Original Oil painting on Paper.
Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation.
This painting originally appeared on the Fleetwood Legendary Locomotives of the 50 States Missouri Commemorative Cover postmarked September 1, 1994.
Intended as "a modern version of a feudal gateway," St. Louis' Union Station provided an impressive welcome to train travelers entering Missouri's largest city. Designed in Romanesque style, the Station was said to have been inspired by the walled city of Carcasonne, France. One of the most outstanding features of the railroad terminal is its 230-foot clock tower. Four faces, with massive dials measuring 10 feet in diameter, provide a 360-degree view of the time. Reminiscent of a medieval castle, the station's main entrance is flanked by handsome turrets. Perhaps this structure's most awe-inspiring sight is the Grand Hall. Constructed with a 65-foot-high, barrel-vault ceiling suspended over a massive 8,500-square-foot floor, it was originally intended as a haven for travelers who had long layovers between trains. Another impressive component of the station was the trainshed. At the time of its construction, it was the largest in the world, capable of accommodating the trains of 22 railroad companies on its 30 tracks. At 1:45 a.m. on September 2, 1894 -- one day after Union Station's official opening -- a fast mail of the Vandalia line became the first train to enter the terminal. Locomotives like the No. 15, an 0-6-0 switching engine built by Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1880, shuffled cars moving between the platform tracks and servicing areas. Today this marvelous building has been renovated into a hotel and shopping complex.
