Cover a regular open canvas mesh with compact diagonal needlepoint stitches and grouped yarn colours, keeping the image clearly stitch-built; thread and stitch texture visible everywhere. A train departing a station in a square: a red and cream commuter train pulling away from a platform toward the distance, the tail end of the last carriage seen from behind, a signal gantry above, rails curving off to a pale horizon and a rain-washed platform in the foreground.
Light: a soft grey morning light with cool blue-grey stitches for the sky and wet rails, the carriage in red and cream wool, warm yellow stitches in the platform lamps, the foreground platform in darker slate; palette of red, cream, blue-grey, slate and yellow; calm, patient, handmade.
Square 1:1 frame, centred composition with breathing room on all sides. No people, readable text, numbers, logos or signs; the train is plain with no lettering.
