Soul Train is suggestive of the engine car of a steam train and hints at the growth of industry and agriculture.

The original model for the sculpture is a playful combination of colour and form. It was made up of everyday objects such as wooden building blocks, parts from children’s games, a toothbrush holder and a sauce bottle lid.

Soul Train is designed to celebrate the rail history of the area in the form of a surprising and colourful ‘folly’.
