Taken while sitting in a train queue due to delays. Because of my #LowVision I don't usually get to look properly at railway tracks. It was nice to pass the time taking photos and checking out details.
Black-and-white photo of a railway track. The track runs from bottom right to middle left. To the right of the track you can see gravel, debris, grass, bushes and a cloudy sky
