The background transitions from warm golden yellow through burnt orange and rust tones to a teal sky, creating depth and nostalgia. The illustration style feels timeless—reminiscent of classic Americana or mid-century travel art. Fine details in the engine, wheels, and surrounding landscape give it an authentic, hand-crafted quality that celebrates the golden age of rail travel.
