Timeless Photography: What's your opinion?

Hey everyone,

As many of you know I'm very much into railroad photography particularly steam railroad photography. I was talking to a photographer friend of mine the other day about people's tastes, which are all very different. We are continually surprised by how some of the pros of the hobby are enamored with a certain timeless image, but the general public are not and vice versa. 

So, as kind of a short answer survey: What makes an image timeless to you? There is no wrong answer here!

Feel free to post any pictures you have that serve as an example of a timeless image. 

Here are some of mine: 

Blacksburg, VA, 1952: the hostler preps an M Class locomotive for a day on the high iron. Steam brought to you by the Strasburg Rail Road in 2017.

Filling the enginehouse with steam, the hostler pulls out the throttle and backs N&W #475 out into the morning sun.
