Perhaps you can see more detail in a larger image...at this size, it is really hard to tell what you are looking at.

It's an interesting shot. I might like it better with a person in it.

it would be neat just to have some siting against the wall on the left, but i shot this through a locked gate just wide enough to fit my lens through.

as for detail, what details would you like to see? here is a larger pic...maybe your opinion will change, maybe not.

Actually yes that is much better. Selective coloring works in this image. I have to concur with Photosguy. I know this is cordoned off. But it would look really good if someone was boarding it. ..... But I guess you have to take what you can get. On it's own It still is a cool image. But it would be a powerful image with someone in it.

not really a boarding spot though. this was more like a garage looking area. though at one time it may have been the street entrance
