You've captured the escence of the scene: A decaying countryside, tracks rusty from lack of use, small towns disappearing when rail traffic no longer stops to pick up the annual agricultural bounty. It makes me sad!
People.. Thats how it happened! I wasnt even near the tracks when I hear " OK, I am done - lets go" So... now its my turn to come up with something. My first one wont be the one I pick though. Not '400 2.8' lucky I guess!
