If you're mad about this shot getting rejected you're gonna have a bad time....
This is literally a basket case of every rejection available.
Obstructions: Get used to pulling up weeds trackside, you may look stupid doing it but its worth the effort.
Lighting: RP wants all visible sides of the train lit, in this case there is maybe 1/4 of the front of the train lit, this can work but the angle has to deemphasize the not lit side.
Shadows: locomotive half in and half out of shadows is a pretty much instant reject.
Composition: train is cut off ackwardly, unless going for a roster shot try to find a way to naturally cut off the train or show enough of it that the cut off isnt as noticeable.
