Pat Davis, owner of the Stong building on Market Street next
door to the Choo Choo, had admired the "Train Mural" and
contacted Frances about getting some boards for her building.  In
October 2003, fifteen Battle Academy fourth and fifth graders
gathered to paint larger than life self portraits.  The children were
asked to have their creations "greet" the viewer.  Some are
smiling, some are waving, all are interacting with the passing
public.  This beautiful 700 square foot mural was funded by a
private donation and the Chattanooga Choo Choo, and sponsored
by Allied Arts of Greater Chattanooga.
