The image is a black and white photograph of a train locomotive. The locomotive is a diesel locomotive with the number 5500 written on the side. It is parked on a railway track with a ladder leaning against the side of the train. The train is surrounded by trees and there is a cloudy sky in the background. The image is taken from a low angle, looking up at the locomotive and the ladder. The overall mood of the image is somber and desolate.
