Interesting. I actually ended up darkening the shadows for artistic intent
as I was trying for more of a Kodachrome look. I'll revisit it to see how
it looks if I open the shadows back up.

I do find rail photography to be challenging because of the lack of
compositional diversity. I try to avoid the 3/4 Wedge like the plague.
