 This is sadly the most interesting part of Canterbury West Station - photographically speaking. It's the undergound passage to get to platform 2.
It looks only half as spooky when you're really there, but I imediately saw this place's potential as a gloomy tunnel. I tried to reflect the mood in the colours and the contrast. All I had to do was wait until someone came through, it happened to be this student.

Gosh I hate the title, but I don't want any DNMC comments this time.

over processing as an attempt to "make" a so-so picture. the tilt isn't working here.

great photo - I only know it belongs in this challenge because of the title though. normally i would give this a 7 or an 8 but due to no train - 5. Ok there are a bunch of other photos with no train so you get your 8.

Kudos for being so daring with this bold, non 'mainstream' image. Probably won't appeal to everybody's taste, but fwiw, I quite like it.

Sorry, but I don't see anything in the photo that says train or railroad. Even the title is a little vague for the challenge.
