Great photo. I always think trains are a great subject for mono.

Boy, you had to be in the right spot at the right time for this one! Very good. I'll bet you planned this photo very carefully.

I like the b&w, but if that's a red engine, I'd probably vote for color!

Wonderful shot. Makes me think about how long it has been since I've gone on a train ride. Maybe one day soon I will.

This is a great monochrome photo. It's a great capture of the engine about to cross the bridge.

I love train pictures!!!!!

PS Thank you for the comments. We have general elections every fourth year, and our Parliament can't be dissolved. Our election is now our and the present government (a centre/left majority coalition) will Continue. The other parties were mostly a chaotic assemblage ranging from liberals via conservatives to literalistic populists of the most extreme kind.
