    I got a few photos of the addition, I now have track going down. I have begun to clamp the track sections together. So I'm making progress. As soon as I get the 2 bridges installed and connected to the track, I'll post some photos.

    [​IMG] It certainly gives me the impression of traversing Rio Grande country! Hope we'll see the bridge spanning that canyon soon.

    :D

    Will you be allowing the bridge to weather via nature? Or will it be stained/painted? If the wood in it would go that way, I think it would look neat to see it weather to a silvery tone.

    :D

    I'm jealous. Do you have a track plan you can post? How many man hours are invested so far?

    The bridge is made with Redwood & Cedar.
    I'm going to let mother nature weather the bridge.
