Great picture as always.

I really like Drew's photos and I am very glad he posts them here, but I've gotta say the evil RPers are kinda right. I noticed it right away.

One of the many things I do includes teaching architecture students how to draw perspectives. I get the train is superelevated (a bit), but unless the train is going down a steep grade and Drew's eye level was at the same height as the running boards, the photo is rotated a few degrees from horizontal. You can tell that by looking at the horizontals and extrapolating the vanishing points. Also, although it is probably not plumb, the power pole in the background is probably not superelevated either.

Please don't shoot the messenger.
