An interesting effect which looks remarkably like a model railroad, I like the gradient blur.

It adds a little interest to this otherwise pretty mundane shot. The only challenge is finding an appropriate image. Images that have an uninterupted distance gradient from bottom to top or side to side seem to work the best. If however there is some element of the composition which stretches from bottom to top or side to side and is seen against the more distant background or closer foreground then things get more difficult. I only regret I wasn't patient enough to wait for a train.
