I thought some of you would like to see my latest. My mini-layout has 8.5" radius curves and stub switches. Obviously, I am limited to small locos. But I really wanted a shay.
This is a conversion of the HO MDC shay. It actually stays on the track on the curves.

Well, I really did try to upload! The Insert a File button is not inserting.

Henry,
Make sure that your file is not too large, or that you are not using odd characters or punctuation in the name. We would love to see that Shay! |

Henry, to amplify Bruce's reply, try to keep the photo file size around 100K or smaller. If it's too large, the "Insert a File" feature will reject the upload. Also, use a file name that has no spaces, apostrophes, ampersands and so forth. Also, be sure that the file type is a jpg or gif. Tiff's are not allowed. A valid file name would look something like this:
ConvertedShay1.jpg
There is one other possible cause for failed uploads: several members who use Netscape browsers have reported having conflicts between their browsers and the forum software. Files failing to upload and forum pages not correctly displaying are among the more common complaints.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm a busy man. I have a railroad to run.
