I like them both, but I don't think the square format works, and would crop them both to 10x8 format.
The first one landscape. Full width, the train just above the third line.
The second portrait. Cropped on the right to remove nearly all of the tree, half as much blue behind the train, and the footbridge and train on or about the upper and lower thirds lines.
But, of course, that's only my opinion.
Well, you did ask for C&C...

Some people call me 'strange'.
I prefer 'unconventional'.
But I'm willing to compromise and accept 'eccentric'.

I like both shots,
is it just me and my monitor or is there banding going on in both of these, clouds and steam in the first and horizontal lines in the sky in the 2nd ?

I'd say solarisation in the first, banding in the second. Possibly down to something in pp? But...I like both shots,

...still a couple of great shots!

It's a nice location, I had a day down there earlier in the year but somehow forgot to post any images. I like the second image, the two bridges do look good there. As we travelled along the line I spotted a few places that looked like they might be decent places to take photos from, but haven't had the chance to go back yet.
