Organisation:This is the reviewers opinion of how well the gallery is organised in terms of naming and sorting files and folders/albums. It is essentially a measure of how easy it is to find photos on a particular subject. | Good |
Captioning:This is the reviewers opinion of how well the photos have been captioned. For example, are all the key details (such as date, location, number, working etc) available? Details within filenames can count towards the captioning 'score'. | None |
Stock covered:This indicates what types of rolling stock are covered. Note that this refers to photos of specific items. For example, a photo of a freight train does not count as a photo of wagons. If there are only a few photos in a given category, this may be shown as none. |

Eras covered:This shows the dates when the photos in each gallery were taken. Note that this does not relate to the age of the stock. For example, a photograph of a 1930s taken in 2021 at a heritage railway would count as a 2000s photo. Also, if there are only a very small number of photos in a particular era, that era may be shown as having none. |

Review:This review contains the opinions of the reviewer and gives an overview of the site along with information about any particular highlights or issues. | Unlike Flickr, photo collections on SmugMug do not tell you how many photos are included. They also don't seem to allow you to add captions. They do however allow for multi-level organisation, and clever users can put details such as numbers, dates and locations into the filenames. Martyn has done this on his huge and well-organised site. Almost all recent/current classes are included and there are a handful of photos from the pre-digital era. Downloading is disabled, though photos can be saved at medium resolution (1024px wide). |
Rating:This rating is the opinion of the reviewer and takes into account various factors such as the quality of the photographs, the interest/rarity of the subject matter and the ease with which the gallery can be navigated and particular photos found. Maximum score is 5 stars. |
