"Six Rainbow Trains: Elevated" is from a suite of six color screenprints done by Crutchfield in London. He combined one of his great fascinations, the locomotive engine with rainbows. This image uses the rainbow motif in the wheels of this fantastic engine, stacked seven high. On top of the attached small coal car is an elevator that stops at each engine, a play on the title "Elevated."
