The yellow and black are very striking- they remind me of the train crossing warning signs at tracks. I love bold colors on a child's quilt.

Love your quilt just the way it is. The yellow and black really do remind you of the RXR signs. Your GS will adore it. I did a Thomas Train with each of the characters in Attic Windows for the little guy across the street. He was crazy about it. They just love TT don't they. You did a great job!
