Railroad portrait designs
For him: beside a steam locomotive at a brick depot, leaning out of the engineer’s cab (there is a Christmas edition too), the conductor on the platform, his last run in the yard at sunset, and his model railroad. For the family: grandpa and a grandchild on the station platform, like father like son, the little engineer, and the Christmas train with the grandparents and a grandchild. For the two of you: a vintage train journey and an anniversary in the dining car.
His locomotive, without the logos
Most designs have an optional “Your locomotive” box on the design page: type the engine he ran or loves, for example “a 4-4-0 steam locomotive, green and brass”, and the preview paints it in place of the one shown. Leave it blank to keep the locomotive in the design. The locomotives are painted without railroad names, logos or road numbers, and PortraitGift is not affiliated with any railroad.
A gift for a train lover
For the dad who still stops to watch the trains go by, the grandpa with a model railroad layout, or the railroader on his last run before retirement: a portrait of him on the railroad is one gift he cannot already own. Use a photo you already have, so it can stay a surprise. More ideas: portrait gifts for Dad, Christmas gifts for Dad, for Grandpa and retirement gifts.
When to order for Christmas
Canvas prints are printed and stretched in 6–8 business days, then tracked shipping takes 3–5 business days in the US and 5–12 elsewhere, depending on the country, so order a canvas by early December in the US, or by late November elsewhere. A digital file is emailed when you order.
How it works
Pick a design and upload a clear, front-facing photo of him without a hat or sunglasses: most designs give him an engineer’s or conductor’s cap. For a grandchild, his son or the family, add each person with the add-person button; separate photos are fine. See a free preview before you order, and ask for changes before anything is printed. You see the price of each format and size when you choose it, before you pay: a digital file, or a canvas in several sizes.

With his own pickup in the picture: truck portraits. Or a cowboy portrait, a Viking portrait and more portrait gifts for your husband.
