We have got the first 3 pages (18 picture thumbnails to a page) of the Portland pictures on our website.

There will be about 30+ pages altogether, about 600 pictures, which will include some Henry Ford Museum stuff, Auburn-Cord-Duesenberg Museum, Willis S Boyer freighter and some shots of the CPR Pacific 5588 at Windsor, Ontario.

We will be updating the pages as the next few days go by, but as we will be away Tuesday/Wednesday it will be the end of the week before everything gets sorted out, possibly later.

Pictures are 1024 X 768 resolution, thumbnails are 267 X 200.

A couple of page address errors crept into the listings, and the thumbnail for the Ohio engine had the wrong page attached.

All corrected now, always happens when you stay up late!

Picture sizes are creeping up now, I can remember when 800 X 600 caused squeals of anguish from folks on 640 X 460 VGA monitors and dial-up connections!

Trouble is, there are still folks out there that cannot get DSL, so the pictures have to be reasonably visible on the thumbnail pages so they can at least be sure of what they are going to get after waiting for it to load.

The next 3 menu pages are being processed as I type and will be up online later tonight (UK time: 18.52)

The original photo's are 2560 X 1920.

Pages 4 to 6 are now also up and running.

You can jump between the menu pages if you want to, there are navigation tools at the bottom of every page.

All 13 pages are up and running, 226 pictures in total, these are for the Portland show only.

We also have Henry Ford museum, Auburn-Cord Museum and some other stuff to go yet.

Page 12 works fine for me...not sure why you can't see it. Maybe try deleting your cache then log on to Harry's and try it again.

Randy:

I have just checked, all the pages link to Page 12 at the bottom correctly, and back again, but you won't get a link to Page 12 if you are ALREADY at Page 12, that is the only page that has 11 to 13 on the menu at the bottom.

As John suggests, try clearing your browser cache and try again.

Did I hear you get called out at Portland for a prize you had won as an exhibitor??

Peter

[Ackman]

I must've been when I looked at the pages, the first time, this mornin'...sorry 'bout that.
YES Peter, I DID win an exhibitor door prize at the Portland Show...got a free Bratwurst & Soda from the Portland Elk's Club!!! ...& it was VERY GOOD, too!!!

THANKS Craig!!!
The FLOUR CITY is owned by the WI Winkler Family. I don't know much else about it, except that is EXTREMELY rare & runs SWEEEEEEEEEEEET!!!!!
The CRAY Bros. engine is mine. I got it from Bill Miller, Anderson, IN. It's 4-1/2hp & runs GREAT!!! CRAY Bros. was only in business for 3 years (1912, 13 & 14) It is a Waterloo built engine & YES, it IS the correct color.

Again, I want to THANK Brady for hauling it & the other 2 engines, I got from Bill, to the show grounds!!!

[Craig A]

I got this video from Randy Ackley but don't know where HE took it.......
If it was at Portland I'll merge this thread with the Portland thread.
ANYWAY.........here's 47 seconds of a 2.2 meg WMV clip.......please right click and save it.

[MCanady]

It's from the Portland Show, Craig. Merton

Thanks Merton! I'll merge the threads

[Ackman]

I was "multi-tasking" by TRYING to walk, video & stay out of other people's way, all at the same time For those of you who haven't been to Portland, click on the attached thumbnail...it will tell you eveything about the engine.
