Dan, those are nice shots, but as a courtesy to the heritage members who can only see the first page of the discussion pages, would you 1) please delete your second, third, and fourth messages, and 2) post the same pictures as follow-ups to your first picture.

When people start a new thread for each picture then it only takes a fraction of a day before the page is filled with single photos and the heritage members can't see what messages were posted before they rolled onto the second page. Okay, I know that's not a super clear explanation, but, really, it's a problem when you post each picture in a new thread. Take a minute, and re-do it the other way, please.

Rather than ask 500 full-fare members to do it your way, why don't you fork out the 29 bucks for the regular membership. The revenue from paying members goes to support the site. Thanks. Bob

Hi Bob,

Thanks for asking. I do fork out the dough each year and have been doing so since well before Todd started asking anyone to pay a penny for this operation. My request wasn't for myself, but for the many railroaders and fans who visit here but who can't , for whatever reason, pay for access to the site. Obviously they're welcome here or Todd wouldn't let them in; and if they're welcome, then they're entitled to a little courtesy.
