And I believe that shots like the last few, or this one for that matter, still set themselves apart from the standard roster shot, don't you think?

A photo like this would be what gets ripped apart by "professional" photographers who see everything wrong with it, while non-photographers or even non-railfans PM you, asking whether they could have a larger version for their desktop! I think that says it all, I never wanted to impress the professionals who only seem to tote around their rule book of acceptable train photos. I want to take photos that can impress or inspire as many people as possible, not just railfans.
I remember years ago I marched in the St Patrick's day parade in Pittsburgh with my Irish Wolfhound. I marched with the Clan Na Gael and was part of the bodyguard for the leaders of the organization. At the end of the parade we had caught up with the local Irish Wolfhound club. This guy thought it was his duty to come over and point out all the things that made my dog something less than show quality. My dog was my pet, she wasn't a show dog, but this asshole was degrading this wonderful gentle beast. I let him have his say, but here was a guy with a big red gin blossom nose, ruddy completion, a bear belly and balding with a scraggly beard, bad teeth and bad breath. When he was done his obnoxious dissertation, I T'd off on him and pointed out all his obvious inadequacies and a few only his ugly wife would know about. When I was done, I told him that my dog was a finer example of an Irish Wolfhound than he was of a human and if he didn't want his pathetic ass beat in front of all these people he'd be best to move on. He wisely apologized and moved on.
Elitist and critics take all the fun out of life to cover up for their own inadequacies. There's is nothing wrong with constructive comments from qualified people, but when it's just critical and rude, I'd prefer to bloody a nose with a quick jab than listen to their shit. A lot of times I think that they wished that they had taken the shot.
Keep doing what you are doing as long as it makes you happy, there will always be those of us who will enjoy and admire what you are doing!

Bis zur Perfektion fehlen meiner Meinung nach nur ein paar Millimeter mehr zwischen Stromabnehmerspitze und Bildrand. Es geht zwar auch so, aber es ist ziemlich knapp...
Manchmalkannst Du, wenn nichts anderes geht, an den Seiten beschneiden (dann wird das Bild quadratisch)
