A semiabstract train denoted by a small blue teardrop form and yellow circle approaches from the distance. A track arches from the train to the left edge of the composition. Billowing smoke in shades of yellow and blue erupts from the train and fills the frame. Behind these forms is a plain background that fades from dark gray at the top of the composition to light gray at the bottom.
