Level Crossing, 1946
Oil on canvas
Lowry made several paintings and drawings of this subject after visiting Burton-on-Trent and seeing the level crossing there. This work, however, may be based on locations in Trafford where a network of railway lines existed to move goods around. Lowry also claimed that the locomotive was drawn from model trains belonging to the son of one of his friends.
