I hope I actually get a vote for this one!!

I am not sure it is allowed to comment/help but if I might give you some advice I would make sure you texture the board from which you take a screenshot. I also like to see some more "action" on your picture. In other words: create a "scene" and try to get your picture to tell the audience a "story".
You will not get votes when you just dump ( a great looking ) some motive power on a board and hit the "print screen" button. Have a closer look at the other pictures in these topics. Find out which ones you really like and why. Try to re-build one of those and before you know it you will have a winner

The A74 Motorway in Scotland....... NOTE: I know the A74 is a Motorway, but its layout is of a dual carriage way with 4 travel lanes, 2 in each direction.

I'll try it. Also, I wasn't saying people HAVE to give me a vote, I was just hoping someone would vote for me. I'll remove that comment.

The person in the picture...
And also, although color photography was around since before the 50s (only in a very few movies and pictures), black and white was the way to go in the 60s.

Wow..

I was taking color 35mm slides of railroad stuff before 1953.

Sorry to go off topic

Regarding the colour, I found these american shots in the 1930s that are colour

Vermont Railway's early morning coal train headed by RS3 603 slowly creeps through the quiet town,trying not to disturbe the sleeping,people as it passes the early morning workers off in the distance.
