Stentor Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 1 hour ago, mullie said: The Barmouth photo is fine on my Mac. Is this a problem unique to mac/Safari/Ipad users? Martyn Looking back through the thread there are examples of readers with iPads using Safari who are saying that they aren’t having the problem. So maybe it’s to do with the version of the iPadOS that we are running. You can see that by going to Settings, General, About and you will see the iPad OS Version. I’m running the latest version, 16 and getting the red issue. //Simon 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwealleans Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 I raised this B & W image issue at the end of November. No-one replied so I thought it was just me. I then found that Edge displays the photos correctly so I've just looked at the posts in that since. I hadn't twigged that they were in a different file format - it must be a browser setting to do with the file type in Firefox (and perhaps other browsers). I have never had the red problem and haven't with any of the images posted on the last couple of pages. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold DaveF Posted December 10, 2022 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted December 10, 2022 (edited) Many thanks for the helpful answers. I have found that the black and white images I have been using recently do not have an embedded colour profile, posting them as GIFs gets round it but then some people cannot see them at all. Yesterday I added a colour profile (sRGB) to the one I posted by itself, that now seems to work so I will convert others as I post them. I managed to reproduce the problem by downloading an image and then opening it in Photoshop. It turned red, that is when I looked at the colour profile. I know Andy Y has been looking at the problem for some time. It seems to affect people using some browsers with some operating systems. It has only happened in the last few months so it may be something to do with updates which now require much more specific image information to display them correctly - perhaps something to do with security.

RMweb Gold Popular Post DaveF Posted December 10, 2022 Author RMweb Gold Popular Post Share Posted December 10, 2022 (edited) For this morning's replacements we travel to the High Dyke branch which ran from High Dyke Junction on the ECML at the north end of Stoke Tunnel to the ironstone quarries (and mine) around Colsterworth, Buckminster, Sewstern and Sproxton and other villages in the area. It opened in 1919 but may have carried traffic before then. It was closed by BR in 1973 but preservation movements took place until 1975 as many of you know from my photos which will gradually reappear. Today we are at Burton Lane crossing between High Dyke and Colsterworth, east of the A1.

RMweb Gold Market65 Posted December 10, 2022 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 10, 2022 Good evening, David. That’s a great set of replacement photo’s of the High Dyke branch at Burton Lane crossing between High Dyke and Colsterworth, east of the A1. The last photo’ of a class 31, 5671, on a down train of empty iron ore wagons, in June, 1972, is an excellent photo’, with a quite bucolic look to it with the long grasses and plants. Also you have captured a quite dramatic sky too, which completes the scene perfectly. The latest Switzerland photo’s on the Rhätische Bahn, are truly stunning, from July, 1992, and that first one at Reichenau Tamins, with a Ge6/6ii, on a Zermatt to St Moritz service, on the 29th July, 1992, being a truly special view as the train crosses where the two rivers meet to make the Rhein.

RMweb Gold Market65 Posted December 11, 2022 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 11, 2022 Good evening, David. That’s a great selection of photo’s from Bressingham from 1972 and 1973. In J3365, with Royal Scot, 6100, in September, 1973, your Dad has captured a superb three quarter portrait shot of the engine. The replacement photo’s of Grangetown to the east of Middlesbrough, are a superb set, and something looks quite intriguing about 37515, on a train of down empties, on the 20th February, 1988, in C9344. The nose side grills seem to be in four sections unlike, for example, on a 37/4, where they are in two sections. The latest photo’s of Carlisle are an excellent selection. The last photo’ is a delightful shot of 90135, on an up freightliner, on the 24th February, 1995. With warmest regards, Rob. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Popular Post DaveF Posted December 12, 2022 Author RMweb Gold Popular Post Share Posted December 12, 2022 (edited) Hillmorton for today's replacements, taken in 1963 pre electrification and 1967. The first one was taken from one of the underbridges in Hillmorton but having looked at Google Earth I cannot be certain which one. Does anyone know? The second one was taken at the site of Lennon Close, near the canal. Work on building the houses had (from memory) just started so this is the only photo of this location. The last three were taken between Hillmorton and Kilsby Tunnel from the bridge over the railway on Nortoft Lane.

RMweb Gold Market65 Posted December 12, 2022 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 12, 2022 Good evening, David. That’s a great set of replacement photo’s of Hillmorton, from 1963 and 1967. The last photo’, of class 86, E3137, on a down freight train, in March, 1967, shows that one the blinds in the four character headcode box is missing, with the bulb shining quite brightly. The latest Buston Barns, on the ECML in Northumberland photo’s have plenty of interest, with C18253, of 91018, on a down express, on the 16th January, 1993, revealing that the glazing from the driver’s side head and marker light cluster has gone missing. The 91, is 91018, rather than 91016, since I’m able to enlarge photo’s on my iPad more than you can on a PC. The 6 is an 8 with the upper part of it continuing in the way you would expect of an 8. I hope that makes sense. With warmest regards, Rob. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
