hmmmmmmm ... really cant decide between the colour and the B&W ... i think its like comparing chalk and cheese .. they are both absolutely fantastic in every way, just very different ... i dont think either one is better than the other ...
edit .. BUT ... i can now see that they are leaves, and not 'white things'!!! like i said in my comment on your b&w version ... and it the it no longer looks as if it could be a model train like it did for me in the b&w... interesting eh?

awesome photograph ..... love b&w especially when it's done well ... and this is done soooooo well done!!!!!! .... love that smoke contrasting with the straight lines of the train ... the more i look at this the more interesting it becomes .. i wonder wot those white things are in the foreground ... and now i'm wondering if this is a full size train or a model ... wotever you've done in the actual photographing and in your processing you've created a wonderful and intriguing image ... just excellent ....
thank you for your comment on my unedited rural scene ... i'm a photoshop fool and it was a bit difficult to put a totally unedited photograph on my profile page!! ..

just read the other comment after i wrote mine, so i'll check out your colour version ..

the little girl is very cute, it would look better if she has a darker shade of red lipsticks to compliment the overall red.. nice shot
