Considered the all-time master of railroad art, Howard Fogg painted the power and majesty of the steel wheel on the steel rail. After rail fans discovered Fogg’s artistry, he spent the next 50 years as a freelance artist reinventing the steam age. In the Howard Fogg Trains 2025 calendar his paintings live on, commemorating the great age of railroading.
