nice composition, I like the hazy background against the hard tracks, this works well. my suggestion for improvement would be related to the color this has a pale and muted tone to it but the rails are hard, I would like more contrast in the forground and more detail of the tracks visable, that area is dark and they are blending into the ground.

You've captured a lot of depth here.

Good composition. But there are some distracting elements like the tree on the left and the powerline.
