There is nothing wrong with that xslt:choose statement.
We would need to see the entire XSLT in order to find your problem here.
@ means attribute, so your XML should have an attribute named Code on the
Carrier node.

Byt the way, that xslt:choose you could replace entirely with something
like:
<img src="/graphics/global/{@Code}.gif" border="0"/>
assuming Code attribute contains the filename without extension, as it did
in your example.
Putting something into braces in an attribute is a short alternative to
xslt:value-of element.
