hey

A few tips, like you asked for
The HDR is probably a litte overdone. If you use Photomatix (If you don't, I recommend it, its very good) then there's a 'strength' slider, which adjusts the 'HDRness' I suppose. I assume photoshop has something similar. Try bringing this slider back a bit, to give a more natural look to the shot.

In terms of composition, its nice, but a train is always an opportunity for a long leading line, cutting diagonally across the frame to draw in the eye. Moving around to the left a bit more would have given you this line, and also lost some of the dead grass in the foreground, which is currently distracting from the main subject.

Shots where the photographer has chosen a subject, which represents a message or idea, and then planned how to powerfully portray this subject are the ones which are most succesful. So by using compositional tools like leading lines, the rule of thirds (or Phi [link] ) we can help make the subject more clear cut. Remember to look at everything in your shot, and if it detracts from the subject, try and get rid of it.
