Thanks Laur. I'll try that tomorrow. I was surprised when I found it, because I was looking for railroad artifacts. ~Mike

Not sure the literal translation but generally means: items as they are found (sitting, situation?)

In archaeology, in situ refers to an artifact that has not been moved from its original place of deposition. In other words, it is stationary, meaning "Still".
It is a latin term that is used in Many contexts ranging from archeology, science and law. It is commonly thought to stand for In Situation which is sort of correct, but not exactly! I know, I'm a Geek! :)

Good pics. You can experiment and try some higher numbers for bigger pics. Those are just the ones that normally work on my computer.
