All photos have been uploaded. Normal operations are fully resumed now.

On the week from 24 till 30th of March the website may be temporary unavailable because of technical works related to moving to a new server. A part of older photos will be uploaded later, there is no need to report their unavailability. There will be a separate notice after upload completion. Sorry for the inconvenience.

We remind you that photos of heavily dirty vehicles are rated one step lower in quality.

It is now possible to specify angles of view for double-ended vehicles. The old definition "Angle not defined" has been deleted and can no longer be selected. It is assumed that for double-ended vehicles there is no view from the "rear", but all views are of the "front" of the vehicle. If the vehicle is pre-defined in the database as "double-ended", the corresponding pictogram of possible angles of view will be offered automatically on the photo upload page. Otherwise users can switch to the "double-ended" pictogram manually. As was the case before, the actual direction of movement does not matter when selecting angles of view.
