    Still quiet a bit to go before she is finished. I've given the scenery base a coat of earth to make it easier to add dirt and rocks at a later time. The ME bridge track is excellent.

    That looks superb! I have always loved the look of trestles, we never had anything like them over here. Never had the space for one on a layout, so I enjoy looking ones on other layouts. [​IMG]

    Looks great. I love the look of a timber trestle! That's gonna be a great railfan spot once you get the scenery completed.

    Ok, I've now completed about half of the trestle. Hopefully I'll get it complete by next weekend.
