Toronto Christmas Train Show

Break from benchwork….

Spent the afternoon at the Christmas Train Show at the International Centre in Toronto today. A bit light on vendors, but the display layouts were pretty good. I was surprised to see how many of them are using Fast Tracks turnouts.

I have installed (okay, Ron installed), a gallery viewer and I thought I would try it with these pictures. Click on any image that looks interesting to see a large version. Hover your mouse over the image near the top and “Next” and “Prev” tabs will appear to allow you to scroll between images. What do you think, does this make it easy to view images? Using this system allows me to upload images much faster and easier.

For some reason all of 'Doc' Fayle's layouts feature some scantily clad women....DSC_4329.jpg

  1. Hello Tim,

    Wanted to let you know that I like the Gallery Viewer. Also I enjoy the blog very much and check it out every day. Been watching since the Port Kelsey days.

    Thanks,

  2. Hi Tim,

    The new gallery viewer is very useful. The only thing that may not be clear for most viewers is that you can hit n & p to go back and forth between images. I find the key commands make it easier to go back and forth between images.

    Keep up the great work.

    Thanks,
    Eric

  3. Hi,

    Thanks for the feedback! Its good to know someone out there is watching. I like the new viewer too, it allows me to post much quicker and therefore can add more images to the posts.

    I expect to use it exclusively in the future.

    -Tim
