The glass panel windscreen in the center of the platform portrays the interaction between the dreams, hopes and aspirations of society and the entropy caused by time. According to artist Ray Tomasso, the subject matter of the windscreen includes, "fragments that shift across the subconscious leaving only a shadow, an essence of a patina, the dust found in a crack, a word left behind, flotsam found along a lost highway, the desk of an unknown and forgotten author, link from a lost love, broken dreams of neon…"

Littleton • Downtown Light Rail Station
Untitled
Michelle Lamb
Dedication Date: 2000
Measuring 40' x 7' tall, the Littleton • Downtown Light Rail Station mural was painted on eight individual metal panels installed on the wall west of the platform leading to the Park-n-Ride. The inspiration for the mural comes from the book "Settlement to Centennial" by Robert McQuarie and from a wealth of archive photos and information at the Littleton Historical Museum. The mural depicts over 50 historical structures, most of which exist less than five minutes from the light rail station. The seasons in the mural change from spring to winter and the light from morning to night as you look from left to right.
Littleton • Mineral Light Rail Station
The Silver Band of Present Time
Robert Tully
Dedication Date: 2000
The themes of technology and the environment are captured in the solar powered clock tower at the Littleton • Mineral Light Rail Station between the pedestrian bridge and the stairway to the Park-n-Ride. The vastness of time is glue that lets us live with so many rational unknowns; the present is a source of enlightenment, contentment, creativity and knowledge. The artwork is complex, like a personality. It is a weaving of technology, nature and time that is both colorful and fragile.
