I like this image because it has the rather nondescript look of an image I might have taken back in the 60's.
But then you start nit picking the details. Spark arrester, rock ballast, water bag hanging from the tender rather than the (missing) flag holder on the side of the cab, some semblance of paint on the boxcar. Others can probably add to this list. Tough to get everything right.
