As an alternative create a new ~/.cache/shotwell for each picture set
(--datadir) using the steps appended by Lucas, rename the
~/.cache/shotwell as a unique directory names. When starting shotwell
with the --datadir parameter link the appropriate renamed
~/.cache/[name] as ~/.cache/shotwell.

Appears that Shotwell maintains a single cache of thumnails in
~/.cache/shotwell/thumbs of the pictures in the database. The problem
is that when using the --datadir (or -d) this same single cache is used
for all databases resulting in the wrong thumbnail being displayed.

This issue is known upstream and is ticketed here:

In the meantime, a workaround is this: whenever you switch your library,
wipe out your ~/.cache/shotwell directory. This will cause Shotwell to
generate new thumbnails appropriate for the current library.
