Almost finished!


 The bridge framework was completed so now I installed the rail.  I used the spacing jig from Real Trains and secured the track down with screws. 
 Bridge is now functional.  To complete will put in guard rails on the inside of the rails to prevent derailments from getting too far.
 The bridge a few weeks ago and now.  Pretty impressive what a few weeks of good weather will do to the greenery.  I have already had to cut back the plants on the other side of the pond as the railway was impassable.

We are down to the last 13 feet to connect the ends and complete the 235 foot loop.  Just a few more hours work and we will have a completed railway!
