About My Sources
Why I use the word "reportedly"...
I may list sources in detail, in general or, quite often, just use the term "reportedly." The word reportedly is an adverb that means, "according to what many people say." [MORE]

- Track Warrants
- I am not sure when Train Orders or Altamont Press got started, but I am almost positive this predates them. From April 28, 1995 to July 18, 1998 I did an online railroad news magazine called Track Warrants. This was the on-line followup to the print version I also started called Flimsies. If you want to read train news, and see train photos, from 15 years ago; here it is!
- My photos on Railpictures.net
- I have not been a big contributor but I do have some photos here.
NOTE: If anything is my "life's work" it's my train photos. — If you scan an analog photo of mine, or if you share a digital photo I took that does not have my photo credit, add something like "Photo by Steve Sloan" directly onto the image. It's not enough to say "Photo by Steve Sloan" in the text caption. People download photos off the Internet/Social Media platform and whatever is in the text does not stick to the photo. Then, they get reshared and that data is lost. I deserve credit for my work.
You may not use my photos for profit and/or as part of, or to sell, a product or service without my consent.
