Hey, that's fine by me, Don. Great to see you posting to this group. That's
a wonderful shot - I will try to shoot a trolleybus in the same spot within
the next few days, and post it for comparison.

The file size - 333 kb - isn't too big, IMO. I vote for option 4!

Cheers,

Brent Efford

Subject: [TramsDownUnder] Wellington: Haitaitai Tunnel in 1961


This is my first experiment in posting a picture to this group. My apologies
to
any who find it too large.

While living in NZ in 1960-1962 I was tightly closeted as a railfan, and
shot
only a few slides on the subject - a literal handful when it came to trams
and
trolleybuses. Now at long last I have slide-scanning capabilities and am
poised
to share these few.

I think the image both supports and requires the large format, and have done
all I could to cut down the file size. Here are some options. I can:

1. Post to the group's Files (problem is, pictures in Files seem to be
severely
compressed: compare some of WGB's pictures attached to messages with the
same
pictures in Files.)

2. Post in a smaller format and offer the larger one privately to anybody
who
might be interested.

3. Post to Usenet (ABPR and ABPV - actually, I'll probably be doing that
anyway.)

4. Post other pictures just as I have done this one. After all, there are
only
a handful, with another handful shot in Australia.

5. Go away ;-)

Comments welcome,
