willis ford	General	Hey guys love the photos on here even if they are bad photos, because they are pictures of places and things we may never see ourselves. Also keep the great old pics and the abandon rail pics to keep history alive.	2/12/2011 7:34:05 PM

Fred Stuckmann	General	Great shot Steven, I don't worry about that other site. I was never white collar. This site suits me just fine, lot's of great shots and people. Thanks to all.	7/8/2011 10:41:23 PM

Rev. Jonathan Spurlock	General	Just saw this one this evening on the homepage and I agree with every comment. To add to what Willis Ford said, even a bad picture of something is better than no picture at all.	2/5/2024 8:19:02 PM

Matthew Zisi	General	I think it's a great shot, and the story makes it even better! Homepage 6/28/24!	6/28/2024 6:38:02 AM

Tom Beckett	General	Great shot of a now long gone diesel-that was already on borrowed time when the photo was taken. To echo what others have said, I don't get Railpictures. A friend posts on there from time to time, he's had some shots rejected that were perfectly fine. Don't understand their reasoning. They must be AFU'd if the likes of George Sillett won't post there. RRPA proves something I've suspected for a long time, that there is an awesome collection of rail photography out there that would not see the light of day, but for a site like this. There aren't enough slide shows in the world to cover everything on here. And yes, a sahot you thought was so-so, or maybe not all that hot at the time, can look like gold with 30 years distance. Home page 07-06-2024. Nicely done.	7/6/2024 5:27:36 AM
