 This is one of the new swedish trains, named after famous swedish people. This one honors Dag Hammarskjöld, elected UN General Secretary in 1953 who got killed in a plane-accident on September the 17th in 1961 on a peace mission in the war-ravaged Republic, the Congo. Hammarskjöld received the Nobel Peace-Prize shortly after his death in 1961 for his contributions to a better world. He showed the leaders of the world what could be achieved by diplomatic actions.

You have a picture of a train ........... you desaturated what little background is showing, and, left the train whole to accent the whole train. It doesn't really stand out as a desatured picture until one's eyes wanders arounds and picks up on the mssing blue in the sky. Might have looked better with just the window reflection in color?

Nice photo, although shadows are a little distracting
