Ed: "Another wood structure, please."

Nothing too exotic. Just a small scratch built, balsa and styrene scale shed recycled into a farm machinery sales office.

More wood structures, please.

The conductor of an Amtrak train (standing in the aisle just to the right of the passenger in the blue shirt at mid-car) stops to talk with the passenger.

The engineer of this Nickel Plate switcher steps out of the cab long enough to exchange some verbal instructions from the ground crew.

Show us some more equipment for industrial rail car spotting - from NVSRR

Since my freelanced home roads don't own any switchers, we lease them from our interchange partners, in this case, the CNR...

...of course, it's not unusual to see home-road locomotives doing industrial switching, too, even though they're technically not switchers, like this little Mogul...

But — he's using Flickr.

yeahbut he managed to post a link that actually ended in a picture format, so I gave him the simplest idea rather than tell him where to look for the share arrow.

I do it like you do in Flickr.

There may be an issue with this Forum, as many of my pictures from photobucket show in preview, but disappear when posted.  I've not had that problem elsewhere.

NVSRR if you use the icon that looks like a mountain and moon, that is the picture icon. 

But — he's using Flickr.

Use the "share" icon, click BBCode and copy. Skip the picture icon in MR and paste the link directly into the text window. Be sure you have viewing options set as "public".

Regards, Ed
