Steam Locomotive Twilight Mexico Causeway

Steel-blue twilight washes the wind-open causeway where a vintage steam locomotive rests on rusted tracks. Thick white vapor billows from the stack, hanging low in the dust that settles near the gravel ballast. The engine's black iron glows faintly against the darkening sky, its brass fittings catching the last ambient light. To the right, a simple wooden station platform stands empty, its slats weathered by late summer heat. Above, the first stars pierce the deepening indigo, while the locomotive's shadow stretches long across the dusty ground. One red signal light blinks steadily near the front buffer, marking the edge of the night.
