American
Freedom Train art by Bob Lorenz
Ohio artist
Bob Lorenz produced many of the conceptual drawings and paintings
that helped get the AFT project off the ground. He served as the
AFT Foundation's staff artist and worked on the engine crew of locomotive
#1 (along with his wife, Bea, who worked on the train as well).
Once the train
was in motion, Lorenz moved on to other artistic duties - such as
designing the paint scheme the former Reading locomotive eventually
wore.
Later, he took
to painting the AFT in action scenes like the one at right.
This beautiful
12x15" print features AFT locomotive #1, the Preamble Express,
and the founding office at Lebanon, NJ.
