Railway tracks depicted as slim white lines intersect and weave amongst each other across dirty gray earth. In the foreground, a signal light is showing us a steady red. Beyond, overlapping utility poles and industrial gridwork structures screen the shadowy shapes of blocky city buildings. Everything is still: there are no trains on the tracks, no life in the image, no lights in the distant buildings. Above, the sky is dingy and dark.
