Hello to the team,

I’m a french writer, and about to publicate a book, “Railtrack archeology”. I’d like to know under which conditions I might use a picture.

Thanks a lot for considering my request of granting permission !

ibiblio is not able to grant permission to use photos, you would have to reach out to the site owner directly. You can generally find an email address on the site you found the photo on.
