There are quite a few poor shots on the site but one hopes that the folks who put garbage on the site learn from scenes like this.

Good shot, well put Jim, it's not difficult to figure out good light angles from poor light angles. I believe some are just satisfied with what they can get where they can get it. I settle for nothing less than perfection when I can get perfection, other times when I can't get a perfect shot I at least try to get halfway decent light as oppose to a shooting in poor lighting conditions. Composition & lighting conditions are key to a great photo. Like Jim said, all you have to do is learn from the photographers that take editor pick quality photos such as this & immulate them. I use a map to find locations for good lighting when I see a consist or train when the light is bad, sometimes it takes quite a bit of driving, but I'd much rather drive to a better location for good light as oppose to settling for a bad lit shot

Guys, appreciate all the comments - I wish the image was a bit sharper. I think my imaging software did that, as the original image on my camera was tack sharp.
