New rules to describe vehicles

Post by decomposed05 » 21 Jul 2013, 22:31

As you probably noticed - something changed in descriptions of vehicles. First thing which is the most noticeble that name of vehicle under photo shortened from (for example) "Konstal 105Na" to "105Na". It seems that manufacturer of vehicle somehow dissappeared but this is the change in convention of names on phototrans.eu.
Previously differend kind of vehicles was grouped and put into the same serie - For example:
Under Volvo B10LA we could find:
Saffle:

Hess:

Carrus:
http://phototrans.net/14,367266,0.html
Wright:
http://phototrans.net/14,305074,0.html
That is surely not correct so we decided to split vehicles into different series so every different vehicle should have different serie and in the series name should be filled with complete name of vehicle (for example: "Konstal 105Na") and manufacturer field is only to indicate in which company this bus, troll or tram was produced. That is reason why "Ikarus-Zemun IK160P" is under Jelcz manufacturer.
