The yellow Nautilus is a semi submersible tour boat and the paddle wheeler is a sightseeing boat. Did I mention that the submersible runs on railroad like tracks :o ??? "What the ..." you may ask, too much rum in Vancouver?? ???
The photos where taken in Disneyland (yes, we had great fun, thank you ;D). The lake for the submarine and the river for the boat are real. They don't have qualified submarine operators, hence the (hidden) underwater tracks. Safety issues too.
So, do they qualify for the main photo gallery in their respective categories? After all, the water is real and they do what they are supposed to do and what other similar watercrafts elsewhere do.
Many thanks...
Cheers...

I see no problem with the paddle wheeler. I think it doesn't matter wether it's doing trips on a lake or around a harbour.
See http://www.shipspotting.com/gallery/photo.php?lid=2134801 for comparison.
I'm not so sure about the submarines on railroads. They remind me too much of a children's attraction here at the Hamburg zoo, Oldtimer cars running on rails through a kind of fairyland. Fake cars, fake submarines...
This is of course my personal opinion, I'm not speaking as one of the photo correction editors:-)
Kind regards,
Jens

That sounds right, Jens.
It seems that the "submarine" isn't one - just a model.

Thanks Janes, I agree with you. Will post the photos soon.
Cheers...
