 Random Photo

Have our server show you a random photo from the database.
Want to show your photos to the world? Add them to the world's most popular, highest quality rail photo database! We simply ask that you follow these guidelines:

1. Please only upload photos that you have taken, or that you have the legal right to display (such as those passed down from a family member, those where you have legal possession of the original, etc.). We take copyright violations very seriously!

2. The photos must depict railroad-related material.

3. The photos must be in JPEG (with the extension .jpg) format.

4. Image file size must not exceed 1 megabyte (1024kb), and the filename should contain only the characters A-Z and 0-9. Other non-standard ASCII characters, such as parenthesis, the # symbol, etc. are incompatible with our filesystem.

5. Our system is optimized for photos to be uploaded at 1024 pixels wide (landscape format) and 800 to 1000 pixels high (portrait format) @ 72 DPI. Our minimum photo size is 800 pixels in width or 600 pixels in height, whichever is greater.

6. Save your photos with as little JPEG compression as possible while still keeping the size under 1mb. Don't worry about the large filesize -- your photo will be slightly compressed and reduced in filesize automatically when you upload!

7. Do not submitted uncorrected or unmodified versions of previously rejected photos. If you are submitting a previously rejected photos with corrections made, please be sure to post a note to the screeners using the "Comments to Screeners" field below letting us know what you've done to improve the image.

8. The only HTML tags allowed in the 'Remarks' field are bold and italics. HTML links to outside websites, page breaks, etc. are not allowed!

9. Read These:
