the composition idea is good but it seems like there is too much greenery between the two subjects.

Nice capture of the feel of the area; would be nice to have the train more prominent.

Took me a minute to find the train & railroad part of this photograph. I found it. :D I don't know. Something about it, just feels like it's more about the winery sign than trains & railroads. It's a well executed image as far as your technicals go (focus, exposure, etc...) Composition is where it comes up a tad short for me. Sorry. JMO. Best of luck to you in the challenge.

Hey, I know this place! Lot's of fun train rides there, I've taken my boy to Thomas and the Polar Express there MANY times. My "Pull Over" shot was just down the road from here.

Nice shot, maybe if it was just a tad wider to include the front of the train and the steps/foreground leading up to the tracks.
