The sculpture, entitled &#8216;Train&#8217;, is the work of Jeff Koons. Train would be a full-size replica of a 1943 Baldwin 2900 steam locomotive, suspended in the air above the raised public walking path. While the proposal still requires significant funding to make it a reality, it does offer an opportunity to highlight the park\u2019s rail history.
