I love the "up close and personal" look this shot. It gives the viewer the sense of a freight train's size and power.

Just for kicks, you should consider this shot a candidate for tonemapping if it was shot RAW. The sky detail you would get might really make things pop. That's just a suggestion, not a critisism of a fine image.

Thanks for the comment and the ratings! Unfortunately, this image would not benefit from the Tone mapping you suggest GrandeMan. Here in the Northwest we quite often end up with a high over cast, uniform gray sky, much of the year. Just as the one seen here. No amount of photo manipulation can render detail in it or make it "Pop". Such is life....
