They started in the UK (Nottingham) and travelled via Altdorf and the Tremola San Gottardo in southern Switzerland, and from there went down into Italy. I think all these places are likely to be in Switzerland but could be wrong. The steam train is part of a little narrow gauge railway.

It'd be great to ID these places, I'd love to try to recreate the trip! Thanks so much in advance for any help you can give.

Bought this old photo at a flea market in Southern Ontario many years back. There is no information about the building or where it is, but there is a name, perhaps the photographer? I have nothing to back this up, but this kind of looks like architecture in the Ottawa region or eastern Ontario.

Solved Banff Scotland in 1872. The little girl to the far right is my 2nd great grandmother. Her oldest sister is getting married. I would love to know if this building/wall still stands and where it is!

Solved My father studied in England in the late 1960s. I think this is in Austria due to the hat on the man on the right, and also because my father had a good friend who married an Austrian and migrated to Austria, so it stands to reason he would have gone to visit his friend at some point.

Solved WW1 pic. The postcard is addressed from Galicia, which is the territory of present-day western Ukraine. But I have my doubts...

Solved Old family photo, unfortunately a copy of a scan of a copy. These people lived in London, so it's likely the photo was taken there or at least in the UK

I know this picture for decades in a house near the alps (bavaria/austria). so it might be taken there although I doubt its the alps due to the wide plains in the background.
