Rainy Night Train Window Ceará Switchback

Steam condenses on the curved glass of a passenger car window, blurring the view of a tropical switchback track in Ceará. Steady rain streaks vertically down the pane, distorting the late afternoon light that pierces through heavy, cool-season clouds. Inside the carriage, a warm, amber glow illuminates the empty, dark leather seats and the wooden frame of the window. Outside, the steel rails glisten with moisture, curving sharply against the green, rain-soaked vegetation of the hillside. The train moves slowly, its metallic body reflecting the gray sky. Water droplets rest on the exterior glass, merging into rivulets that race toward the bottom edge of the frame.
