great picture, i would have cropped the left side of the picture and shown only the train

The colors make this photo very interesting. Nice choice, pretty good perspective although I might have wanted to see a really long train behind the engines to help portray their strength.

Good composition, but JPEG artifacting is a problem here

I think you could have made this have more impact by cropping off the empty space on the left and across the bottom - it's a big train, so make it fill the frame

A bit snapshot-ish. But good choice of motiv/subject.

good angle for message but the composition could be better. There are many distractions on the left and subject seems a bit blurred

Ideal subject, nice photo but seems a little over compressed, some pixelation around edges.

Technically is correct, but for me is more an ugly train than a "powerful" train
