This illustration invites a story.
A story from the perspective of the man who sweeps the platform. Or from a visitor that waits for the arrival of the train. Or maybe just a story on snow.

Thank for your comments.

It was a cold X'mas eve morning I had to go back to the factory to work with a Japanese engineer on some problems of a project. He had been working for the last 3 days without going home. The staff from the train station was sweeping the snow. A small boy was playing with the snow while her mother waiting for the train. That day we worked till the late night. No X'mas party for us...
