The legend is Samson who defeats the attacking lion barehanded. Except here its more like a train.

here's a graphite painting, just to get something down on paper so i can visualize it. Scale is off train should be much bigger. Maybe the image should be longer horizontally? Its going to be very dark. Samson here is after Francesco Hayez' 'Samson and Lion', I dig the classicism. I should convert him to more modern dress, but i want to keep the classic style of the toga...

does it feel more like a normal man derailed a monster train?

I like a lot yoiur idea, if I can comment, i'd say that the train is a little too off image. IMO would be better with the train a little bit more centered
