Opening the image before reading the caption: Why is there a tiny ledge extending over that train line on the platform at California station?

I've read your comment and looked back and I still see a train station. What is it supposed to be?

This is depicting empty metal shelving. What looks like rails for a train is the lip of a shelf. What looks like the near-side of the tracks is the floor, and what looks like the far side of the tracks is the top of the shelving. That little balcony seems to be some place for displaying featured products of some sort.

Definitely hard to break the image of a train platform though.

...but why do the shelves look like they incinerated the bottles in-place?

The Snap but only for American bottles.

Look at the far right of the image where there's products on the shelves, it'll make more sense.

Took me far too long to realise it’s a picture of shelves in a store and not a train station store 😂

Even after the caption, my brain had to adjust for the human sized wine bottles waiting for their morning commute

Silly, it's america, there are no trains in California.

(There are, before anyone gets at me)

And the people are lined up so neatly and colour-coordinated.
