Further to the above, I've been looking on the web for recommendations only to find that commercially influenced recommendations are common.
So, I'm confused . Can the mods please recommend a size in PPI which they think is appropriate please.

Ok, I have reduced the size of the photos from around 12Mb to 1-2Mb. I'll see what else I can do, otherwise no more photos from me.
It's not the size that needs reducing but the resolution - the maximum they need to be in reality is no more than 1200 x 800 pixels, on a computer screen this is more than sufficient. The file format will then determine the actually size.

Depending up on which photo editing suite you use it may have a 'Batch Processing' option.

I use Affinity which allows me to batch process photos including size and resolution. I generally reduce the photo size to 1000 or 1500 pixels on the long edge and file size to around 300kb for fast uploading, especially on mobile devices.

I have uploaded another of my videos to YouTube. This one is of the Apedale Light Railway's Stanhope Steam Gala of Sunday 14 May 2017. It includes static shots of their Baldwin Gas/Electric which, I believe, is currently being rebuilt back to its 600mm NG standard.
