Painted on the two walls bordering Sunset Dr., at the Railroad underpass, is this mural that features Classic vehicles and Railroad Cars. It is just east of S. Ellison Ave, and north of "Train Station Park". The approximate size of each side of the mural is 40' long and 9' tall (at the highest point).
Sadly, a lot of the paint is chipping away and fading (mostly on the railroad side), and there are rust stains from water leakage, but the overall mural can still be appreciated.
Some of things depicted in the murals include:
East side (Vehicles):
"El Reno, OK"
flame-striped car
RV with two lawn chairs
"Motel Reno" sign
Rt. 66 sign
"Oasis" sign
Two classic vehicles parked in the grass
Oklahoma and US Flags
"Small Town Weekend 1st Fri-Sat of June"
West side (Railroad):
Train Depot
Engine with number 652
Union Pacific logo
"Building America 150 Years"

Train car with "2012" and the American flag painted on the yellow side (a conductor is leaning out the window)
