Verrrry nice! Now you got me curious tho about the reaction from a few commenters. . .better go check it out:

Oyyyyyy. .. some people spend way too much time looking for things to get their tail feathers in a ruffle about instead of just enjoying great photography!

WAY TO GO on capturing an amazing photo -- processed to perfection -- and on getting the last word!!!

The crop doesn't look strange to me at all. I have always been a fan of square crops. The pictures look so much bigger and larger than life when they are square. This is amazing. I'm so glad you had a great day, and a ribbon to put the icing on the cake -- or I should say the memory :) Congratulations MAK! You continue to be AWESOME! :)

This is SO AMAZING! I love train photos anyway -- but this one has all the glam and drama that definitely make it a blue ribbon winner! Congratulations!

This is great! I think I would have picked this one for a ribbon. I love a photo for these set-up challenges that you could still hang on your wall.

That is SO awesome! I always think these shots are so underrated by the voters. To me, they take such skill and when done right turn out so magical -- I think this oughta be in the 7's easy. But congratulations on a fabulous score and front page honors.
