Re: Another interesting Shorpy photo

Tom, in my case, with the current version of Opera, it failed twice, and worked twice, using the same address, pasted into 4 different windows.  Go figure. 
On a better note, there are a few more pictures of the Detroit, and another car ferry.

At the Shorpy site, use the search terms  (with quotes)   "Detroit"  +  "Transfer Steamer"
One photo titled "In the Ice: 1905"  (which I believe has been discussed here previously) is simply spectacular.
Most photos show the Detroit loaded with Steam Era Freight Cars.
Enjoy the shots.

Tom, All the record... all of the links have worked fine for me using Internet Explorer. Don't see why it won't load for you...

OK, what am I doing wrong? That link gives an immediate "Page not found" in both IE and Safari on two different computers. If I put a backslash character at the end of "jpg" I go to a Shorpy index page which has several interesting images but not the one in question. If I search Shorpy for 4a21996a I get the same index page.
