I have to say, the vanishing point works well for me. The linearity is neat, but somehow doesn't distract too much from the engine. Nice work.

Very nice. The lines "to infinity" work well. The subject is great, I am of an age that steam trains were the norm. and I enjoy all these sites that preserve them

Oh yeah, this is a great shot. Love the old locomotive, and I particuarlay like the bright orange on the front and then the blue of the sign on the left. Very cool.
