Paper. : For Rasmussen, promoting the Danish State Railways was about more than just depicting locomotion, it was about the beauty of destinations and the impressive structures allowed trains to get from one place to another. Here, wrapped in the warm comfort of night-time blues and greens, a whistful plume of steam from a train making its way over a towering gray bridge, blows through the structure's supports. The yellow glow from the setting sun is visible on the horizon and is echoed in the lights emanating from the train's carriages. This is the English version.
