Did some one say Scotsman.

In the "Post Reply" window look in the bottom left for a green cross and the description "Add Attachments" - click that link.

This pops up a second window titled "File Chooser" with a green button in the upper left that says "Upload Files" - click that button and select the files you want to upload.

Once it is done uploading a check box will appear on the same "File Chooser" window that says "Insert all photos and videos into post body (large size)" which allows for easy insertion of the now-uploaded pictures into your post.

I'm looking forward to seeing your pictures, sounds like a great experience.

Such a beautiful face...great photo.

   thank you  Blystovski

No, thank you for posting!  I really like the high-drivered locomotive - looks like a 4-2-2?  How tall is that driver!?

......and what is the tractive effort of that "single"?!    What a beautiful collection of preserved railway equipment. Shame that as big a country as the USA is, that our preservation efforts are so modest, in comparison.

Found the following Wikipedia page that has some information on the class.  Rough estimation based on boiler pressure, cylinder size, and driver diameter indicate a tractive effort of about 12,500 pounds if I'm doing it correctly...

(PSI*pi*cylinder_radius_inches^2)*(cylinder_stroke_inches/driver_diameter_inches)*.85_adhesion_factor
