 I spent a bit of time wandering around some rails near my house to get the right shot. I was hoping for one with the camera level with a rail showing reflection of city lights on the top edge, but this one turned out better than those.

Good idea, but the focus is way too soft. USM when resizing?

There would be no way to know this was late at night. Sorry, just a little boring. Maybe if it were taken looking down to where the rails were going to into the distance??? Just my opinion.

Composition needs something extra to break up the monotony.

Help us to see that this is "late night". This same color/light could be sunset, sunrise. Good composition.
