Steam Train on Anchorage Causeway at Midnight Sun

by Silas Orozco

Rich amber light spills across a wooden marsh causeway where a steam train moves forward, its black metal body gleaming under the low-hanging copper sky. Thick plumes of white steam rise from the locomotive, catching the glow before dissolving into the air. The train travels on tracks laid over shallow water, creating a perfect mirror that doubles the image of the engine and the stacked clouds above. The water surface is calm, reflecting the dark wheels and the warm tones of the sunset without ripples. Along the edges of the causeway, low marsh grasses sway slightly in the breeze, their green blades against the golden light. The scene remains still despite the train's motion, freezing the moment where the machine meets the quiet, open landscape of the Anchorage region under the endless twilight of the midnight sun.
