Your mind plays tricks on you

So you play tricks back!
Interesting reading what some have to say about how this photo "leans" or is otherwise not level, and how they support it using their ideas on perspective.
I'm too lazy to post a photo here, but if you crop the image to show just the locomotives and compare them to your computer's toolbar, you see some interesting things. When I do this I conclude:
My toolbar and monitor tilt,
The rear of the train (based on the white stripe on the Amtrak locomotive) tilts down,
But the front of the train (based on the front handrail) tilts up.
The running board appears to be adjusted to be level somehow. How Drew did this I've no idea, but he should apply this "leveling software" to the mountains in the background.
Obviously, the train is entering some kind of gravity vortex, which is so strong it is causing my monitor to warp too.
