Inside Train Compartment Photos

gakei · 10-20-2005, 05:11 PM

I'm new to this forum and would like to know if inside compartment photos are not welcome to be included to this website? I have tried to search the photo database and found only one of such kind of photos which is a very early one, and I am just have a photo of this kind being rejected for "Bad Motive".

Thanks for clarification. =)

You mean in-cab photos? You can see a whole bunch of them if you click on 'in-cab photos' on the main page.

Not really. I find "In-cab" photos in the database are taken inside *driving* cabs, but what I mean is photos inside *passenger* compartments.

I'm sure a lot of us would like to see them, but they are really hard to do properly. Bad light and bluring are your enemies...

Really? My rejected photo is available below. So anyone has the idea that why it is rejected as "bad motive" ? Thanks =)

What a Mickey Mouse idea for a photo...........

Nothing in the photo appears rail related. It could be the inside of a bus. Thats probably why you got the bad motive rejection.

I would be very happy if there is such a long multi-car articulated Mickey Mouse bus

I think I got the idea. That will simply mean inside train compartment photos are not welcome as it is nearly impossible to be "rail related". I like to take interior photos, that means I most of my photos cannot be shown here

BTW I really found an "in-cab" photo of a Japanese train in the database which is really like a bus compartment ... (However it is more obvious "rail" related since the photo shows the "rail" outside the windscreen.)

Thanks for clarification.

I think it is a very interesting photo - I would like to see more. One of the things I miss is all of the different types of interiors on passenger cars before Amtrak bought all of their own cars in the USA with similar interior treatments. Looks like a quality photo to me.
