Looks like the railroad is planning to widen the crossing in the future, they do that all the time along the METROLINK San Fernando Valley line (former S.P.)here in So. California as seen here at Buena Vista and Vanowen in Burbank.

nice shot Dermy!
I love how you edit your photos
care to share how you do it?

Composition: Default camera position puts the lead loco dead centre which isn't a good place for the subject in a photo! I run Trainz at 1920 x 1080 but crop to 1600 x 900 or sometimes 1600 x 750. This allows me to place the loco (or other main subject) where I want it, which mostly isn't dead center. Having thecamera focussed on the second or third unit rather than the default lead unit can also help composition.

@ 817Taylor i do believe he just turns the sharpness up...

I don't often sharpen images, that's pretty much how they come off the graphics card, but I do generally tweak the histogram a bit. If that's too techy, most graphics programmes allow you to easily bump the contrast up a bit which will have more or less the same effect...
