Rack Railway Train Crossing Misty Tibetan Valley at Dawn

by Gary Orr

Thick white mist swallows the deep valley floor, leaving only the jagged silhouette of a rack railway track suspended in the air. The steel rails gleam faintly under the pale, diffused light of first light. A train car, painted in muted earth tones, climbs the steep incline, its wheels gripping the central toothed rail with mechanical precision. Soft golden hues touch the very top edge of the clouds below, against the cool grey steel of the tracks. Mist rests on the rock face beside the bridge, softening the rough stone texture. The perspective pulls attention upward along the converging lines of the bridge supports disappearing into the fog. One rivet on the steel girder reflects the morning glow.
