The signalman's cottage at Hoorn tram station is still fully operational. The building is part of Museum Stoomtram Hoorn Medemblik.
From here, steam trams and wagons carry tourists and enthusiasts along a 20 km local railway, taking you past authentic stations. This is the most exciting time travel imaginable.
The signalman's cottage is full of authentic materials. In the background, you can see a modern intercity train. By playing with contrast and selective colour processing in post-processing, I wanted to emphasise the contrast between the antique material versus the modern material. The final result is an exciting and unique time image that is now available for work on the wall. Thank you for your time and attention and enjoy your purchase.
