Took a new video today.
What type of wood are you using for the bridge?Started on the other trestle. 12 bents in this one . I have one more to build after this one. I still need to add the cross members and do some more leveling. View attachment 245618View attachment 245619View attachment 245620View attachment 245621View attachment 245622
Hi John. Iim using Cedar. I buy the 1×6 and rip them down on the table saw. They have been outside for a year and 3 months and so far so good.What type of wood are you using for the bridge?
Jack sorry not managed to catch up with all of your posts till just now.Dunnyrail didn't see your link. I'm interested in seeing it. Thanks.

First my link to my Railway Build is in the Sigature Line below this post, click on the red text ‘a new railway is started etc...’ you may have to scroll a page or lots to get to how I Operate my line, but it is there.
As for your Pond Pump I see it is still showing up on some of your pics. Way to hide it, thin bricks placed either side with some Expanded Polystyrene below to protect the Liner and some of that Flat Stone on top will loose it nicely but will still be accesible for Servicing should the need arise. You could also put a suitable smallish rock on top of that to make a small Island.
Still loving what you are doing, I think it is safe to say that you have got past the learning phase!
Thanks I appreciate it. There is so many amazing layouts on here for inspiration.Nice work Jack !
Thanks Bill. Deal of a lifetime. Runs beautifully..now that's a good looking engine
It's 74 and perfect today. On the railroad..Lots of great progress! It must be nice to be able to work on the RR year around. But, then again, I don't have to deal with hurricanes!
