__NOTOC__
==Purpose==

The purpose of this template is to access images on the London Transport Museum Photographic Collection website at https://www.ltmuseum.co.uk/collections/collections-online/photographs. This site contains an extensive collection of images of [[London]] and its public transport ([[bus]]es, [[tram]]s, [[trolleybus]]es and [[London Underground|tube trains]]) from the [[19th century]] to the current day. It is therefore a useful resource for anyone preparing articles on any of these topics.

==Usage==

The template takes the format: <nowiki>{{LTM collection|1|2}}</nowiki> which expands to: <nowiki>[https://images.ltmuseum.co.uk/images/max/{{{1}}} {{{2}}}]</nowiki>

Currently the two parameters are:

# The final subpath and filename of image required. To obtain this:
#*Find an image on the Museum website
#*Right-click on the image and select properties from the [[context menu]], then:
#**If you are using Internet Explorer, copy the last two groups from the Address property that is displayed
#**If you are using Firefox, copy the last two groups from the Location property that is displayed (you may need to resize the box to see it in full)
#**Thus in the following [[URL]], <nowiki>https://images.ltmuseum.co.uk/images/max/</nowiki>'''iz/i00008iz.jpg''', the bold section should be copied. Note this includes the [[filename extension]]
# The description of the image you want to be displayed.

==Example==

In the following example the last two groups of the URL are ''iz/i00008iz.jpg'' and the description to be displayed in the article is ''Tube train at Aldwych station, 1958''.

Thus: <nowiki>{{LTM collection|iz/i00008iz.jpg|Tube train at Aldwych station, 1958}}</nowiki><br>
Produces: {{LTM collection|iz/i00008iz.jpg|Tube train at Aldwych station, 1958}}
