Captured under the quiet glow of night, the legendary Santa Fe 2925 steam locomotive stands in solemn repose. Once a titan of American railroads, its riveted steel and bold numbering are bathed in warm light, evoking both the power of its past and the stillness of the present. This image reflects the enduring spirit of steam — a reminder of the journeys once forged across vast landscapes and the stories that linger long after the last whistle has faded.
