Silent railway station by peterdegraaff

Silent railway station

...Cringila. Once 50,000 people worked at the Port Kembla steel works, but today there are less than 4,000. The station now stands quiet, unless the stationmaster flags down a train.

@judithg it's called productivity. One person does the work of ten for just a little more pay

Love the POV and colors of this! What attracts my eye is that one light, "going the wrong way!"

nicely composed. I'm an addict of lines and geometry in genera and there's plenty of it in this

Great lines and composition!

Great choice of making this b/w Peter! It reinforces the idea of by-gone days. Hopefully we will see a day when the station is teaming with people again!
