Telling a Story

Some paintings tell a story or hint at a story. When I painted the old train depot in Winter Garden, Fl earlier this month (en plein air) I could not help but be amused by the contrast between the history of the museum and the children being given their "train ride" right up to the door.

I decided to add an older man in the painting just to maybe give the idea that he was also amused by the contrast or maybe thinking of other days?

Any ideas for a title for the painting?
Watercolor and ink on canvas. 12 x 16.
