Daniel--

The same thing bugged me too. Possible cause: I may have been panning  
a bit to track the train. It was pretty close to me. If I tracked the  
nose of the loco, keeping it centered during the slow exposure...

The same thing happened on a couple other frames shooting the strong  
lateral motion in that dim light.

I liked the effect, although it would likely be more reliable to do  
it with PhotoShop.

Ahh, serendipity.
