Flickr's revamped layout introduced in 2013 looks nice at first, but the larger photo size and continuous loading may result in very slow performance, depending on your connection speed. Also, comments, maps and other information are no longer readily visible. Here are a couple of alternatives:
- http://www.flickr.com/photos/railtourist/?details=1 - the original layout, better for viewers on low-bandwidth connections (still works as at July 2017)
- http://www.fluidr.com/photos/railtourist/ - an alternative front end for Flickr
Have a photo, but unsure of the date or location? Try posting it here:
