Oops.  All I got was broken links.

I'm not sure if these pictures will properly post to Derrick's web  
side.   Harold Golk sent me a wonderful assortment of 38 pictures of  
his vacation in Japan.   Mostly railroad and trams but also some  
interesting cityscapes.   Since we have Japanese fan in this group,  
I'm attempting to forward.   If the images are not stripped and put  
into links and you want to see them, tell me who wants it and I'll  
mail it directly to your address.    This is the kind of stuff that  
shouts to Fred ... "Vacation in Japan needed."
Fred.
