Working Historic RailRoad

[Careyl2]

I took this picture a few weeks ago at a historic working r&r near my house. I was fighting the sun most of the day, and 90% of the time the sun was shining straight at me.
I converted the picture to B&W using Silver Efex and tried to tone down the sky as much as I could with a few spot corrections. Not sure if anything else is needed but any input is appreciated

Nice shot! Do you mind if I try something with this and re post? Jeff

My first impression looking at it was that the photo is a little under exposed. My eye gets drawn to the "15" on the front of the train, which I like, but the front seems so dark and hard to make out.

I agree. I like it at +1.3 on the exposure. - Terry

I adjusted the shadows some and added some contrast. I also removed the power lines, Jeff
