I think the film *ist did that too, but I never wanted to own one, so I don't actually know.

I don't think that was too uncommon. Some P&S cameras would pull all of the film out of the casset and then respoll it as it was shot. On the plus side - if the camera was accidently opened the exposed frames would not be damaged.

I just noticed that the way those disposable plastic cameras work is
they have the film pulled all the way out of the cassette and as you
take pictures, the film is rewound into the cassette. All of the frame
numbers come out back-to-front (i.e. #1 is the last photo & #27 is the
first).

It makes a difference when you scan the film, because you're going to
have to re-number them in post if you want the images in the correct
order ... which I do, because otherwise it makes my head hurt.

I noticed it because the second photo on the film is a train taken FROM
the train and there was a river on the wrong side.

But it's not the wrong side, because it's not the second photo, it's the
next to last photo and it was taken while the train was returning. It's
the next to last photo on the roll.

Now all I have to figure out is why the hell was I using a disposable
camera and not my regular cameras?
