A genuine, Union made, Summer Conductor's hat from Chicago. This is my cap. I am so happy that I found it.

I love this vibrant drop shadows. They inspired me to use them. I'll be it less vibrant.
This picture and others like it inspired the whole look of the Station. I really loved the combination of colors. I did desaturate mine so that it wasn't as garish. But I love this aesthetic.
The 1884 Union Pacific Railway Logo with a drop shadow that I liked.
I grew up next to the Union Pacific Railroad and I love the shield. So, I took inspiration from this 1886 version. It just looks so cool!
The Red and Gold is just Iconic.
This diagram helped me understand what I was looking at when I was looking through trains.
Diagrams like this are incredible.
Was a huge help in designing my Train Vectors.
Cool Picture I liked this.
A very fun image.
