Aye! Irresistible Olde Ruste!
It appears to have been a successful effort.
(I do note via the locomotive number a left/right reversal; e.g., emulsion side facing camera -- is that intentional?)
Good eye! I wondered how long it would take before someone spotted that. Yes, the negative reversed on the light table. I wasn’t too concerned since this was just a test to see how it worked.
Well, once you have it in digital form, reversing it is an easy, lossless process. I suppose it's even possible photographing the emulsion side might be a hair sharper. (I bought a totally manual macro lens for my EOS M5 to try camera scans, but haven't yet quite gotten a round tuit.)

I can't see myself using this technique very often since I have a Nikon LS 8000 and a very good Microtek Artixscan M1, but it's there if I need it. JohnW
