**This 2024 Ravensburger puzzle comes without cellophane and is in a smaller box as Ravensburger move to a more environmentally sustainable puzzling**

The London and North Eastern Railway Class J38 steam locomotive (65901) gently passes the village level crossing on the crisp winters day. A bedford bullnose lorry carrying bales of straw waits until it is safe to cross and a little boy watches in awe. The red MGA sports car and will have to wait to bring the Christmas tree home. Whilst the children are playing happily with their sledges on the nearby hill, oblivious to the train, all this commotion has startled a pair of magpies and a pheasant and they fly off to find a calmer spot.

About the Artist:

Born in Castleford in the heart of former industrial West Riding of Yorkshire, from the same town as famous sculptor Henry Moore. During his degree, where he studied illustration at the Wakefield College of Art, Kevin became well known for his aircraft paintings and became a member of the Guild of Aviation Artists.

In recent years he has become increasingly known for a much wider variety of subjects, such as landscapes, transport and city life, although many of these subjects focus greatly on nostalgia and can be found on a diverse range of products, from greeting cards to biscuit tins. Kevin Walsh’s paintings are part of Gibsons nostalgia range and many of his original oil paintings can be seen at the Headrow Gallery in Leeds.
