Hi All,

We are looking to liven up the OpenRails.org website > Download > Content page with image carousels where users can scroll through images of the routes. Please contribute to this good cause and share your screenshots of the following download-routes:

- Demo Model 1 - The Scottish Capitals Express from Edinburg to Glasgow during 1970’s.
- Chiltern - A historic route running to the Chiltern Hills to London UK around the 1960’s.
- New Forest - A route connecting several historic coastal towns in 1960’s Southern England.
- MidEast coast - 1950’s route connecting London and York to the north with many branch lines and destinations.
- The Great Zig Zag railway - This historic route was designed to scale the Blue Mountains range in New South Wales - Australia and includes a beginner’s Steam tutorial.

Consider different weather conditions, seasons, times of day, etc. It would be great - but not a must - if you can provide jpeg images with dimension 1280 * 800 pixels.

Thank you!
Hank

Sounds, great. I'd like to have my Portuguese Route mentioned on that section as well. It's hosted on Github. I already have quite some shots on 4k.

Hello, Hank.
You mean establishing of photo-galleries of said routes screenshots, right?
Sounds very good, if so.


Yes, that is the idea. Here is an example of an image carousel.

That would be great!

It is interesting, I just discussed with Chris Jakeman - who is oversees OpenRails,org website matters - to ask for additional routes for the website. We thought it would be better to do that in a separate thread, to keep this thread focused on collecting images for the existing download routes.

Now that the Genie is out of the bottle I start a separate thread to ask for routes that can be added to the OpenRails download page . Let's continue the discussion on new routes in that thread and keep this one focused on images for the existing download routes.

Thanks!
Hank

You are welcome to use my screenshots of Chiltern, uploaded here, though, they are mostly cropped to sizes less, than 1280 for focusing on most sensible content.
See there - post 12 onwards


Great, nice pictures! Thank you.
