The choice isn't in the album list to upload to...

So it isnt, odd, steam on the mainline has been marked up so people shouldn't be able to enter it, so everything is set up normally but its not showing properly.

I'll investigate

Just to clarify something.

Does this have to be trains viewed from past where the line ends when The buffer stops are between the train and the camera.

Or Can it be a picture of a train at the end of a line where the train is infront of the buffer stops from the camera point of view.

And sorry if i confused every one.

No, I would like this clarifying as well.

Do the buffer stops have to be in the shot?

Bayum · 3rd November 2008, 18:15

I reckon they should... How else would anyone know they were at a Buffer?

Unless it was a termini station, or say there were shops in front of the train or something, like platforms 2,3,4 at Leeds. (Think its those anyways, on the eastern side)

I didn't have it in mind the buffers had to be visible, but it probably wouldn't do your chances of getting votes much harm

Giving the location as a caption should make it clear in most cases?

A phot taken behind/alongside/next to the buffers should do in most cases

Also, POTW 243 isn't working. Asks me for a password if I try to look at the pictures.

Jordy · 3rd November 2008, 20:42
