Me neither.  In fact, since the commenter's handle is ABQfoamer, I figured he was just being tongue-in-cheek facetious about how n-i-m-b-y-s view railroads in general.  I certainly didn't think it was in any way a comment on the photograph per se or that it was in any way aimed at the photographer.
