A black background color goes well with your composition of the triple unit electrical train both to complement the colors (I find myself wanting to saturate the colors slightly to help make the train stand out a little more strongly in the foggy setting) and to help bring out more of the detailing to be found in the image.

Interesting locomotive in the light fog of the Swedish morning.
Also interesting is the Mohnié type truss suspending the power wires
above it.
But oops... the engineer is on coming!
