Nice shot Janos, it reminds me arabian religion architecture. Nice contrast between red train and other objects. Well done.

I really like the architecture of railway stations. You captured it well here. The evening (morning?) light works well in this picture. The red train gives a nice spot of color into the othwerwise harsh metallic environment.

It would have been nice though if you had had a train in motion. Maybe they are, but you had too fast shutter speed? This shot with slow shutter speed and a blurred train would have been really dynamic, especially if one train was moving and another one was still. I think the contrast between the static architecture and blurred motion would have been very effective.

Anyway, this is a great shot Janos!
