Not that I, strictly speaking, disagree with what's been said up to now, but let's see what I find that's good in here.
I think we have to view this is basically an exercise in abstraction or graphic design, rather than as a photograph, since there are many choices made here that suggest to me that literal representation of railroad tracks isn't really the point. The centering of everything is fine, this photograph is about symmetry. Actually, symmetry just barely broken, so centering up the vanishing point emphasizes the symmetry and clarifies it. What's going on in that visual center, the curve of the track to the right and the siding? road? also heading off to the right makes this more interesting. Not very interesting, but not completely banal.
The popped colors and overall.. it's not really softness.. some sort of mild painterly effect, speak again to the idea that this is a graphic design as much as a photograph.
The various elements hang together as an idea, I think. It's not a powerful and moving image, by any means. It's not a particularly interesting image. But it is a set of coherent visual ideas.
The biggest flaw for me is that you have to look at it quite large to see what's going on at the visual center (the curves to the right) but at that point you've got a confusing and pretty uninteresting giant mass of color and texture surrounding the thing that's interesting. This might work as a piece of commercial art someplace, though, printed quite large.
