well with the rain we have had I started on the trestle, cedar,
I need to pour cement footings under them because this is a high wind area.

Here you can see my helper Max and the location of this bridge

Marty,
Let me be the first to say that your trestle is looking great. I especially like the stone work along the approaches.
Do you think the line will be finished by the 26th?

Very nice, Senor!!

 

[Jerry Barnes]

WOW Marty, that's NICE! Great photo op there, you are an artist in track!

 

[cmjdisanto]

Wow Marty! You just don't stop! Hehehe even with a week to go before the Battery steam-up you're still at it. Very nice work too. Inspiring. (now all I need is the means.....To follow your example that is /DesktopModules/NTForums/themes/mls/emoticons/whistling.gif )

BTW I like your approach to bringing tje ground to the trestle instead of the trestle from the ground to the track. May not be "correct" in some schools of thought but it sure makes life easier./DesktopModules/NTForums/themes/mls/emoticons/whistling.gif

Any chance of taking a picture in daylight?

 

[Gary Armitstead]

Very nice looking trestle Marty!

 

[Marauderer]

Marty, it just keeps getting better at the North Table Creek GRR.

Marty,

Looks like the beginning of another spectacular creation. With your penchant for building the truly spectacular I'll bet you wouldn't even know how to build a simple culvert. hehe!

That's going to be another great photo location. No doubt about that. Marvelous!

 

[John J]

Hurry Up Marty. You only tog 11 days before the maddaning crowd shows up

[vsmith]

Very nice indeed! Are you going to stain it or just let it weather naturally?

 

[jimtyp]

Great looking trestle! Are you going to have water running where the bridge is? Or is it just a wash out that gets water only when it rains?

 

[Richard Weatherby]

Looks Great!! Are you building it in-place? I don't think I could do that. I would probably put an arch in it.

 

[tbug]

Excellent! Looks fantastic!!

 

[up9018]

Looks great Marty! Cannot wait to see it in person.

 

[Stan Cedarleaf]

Fabulous, Marty..... Just fabulous....

I used my new pin nailer and love it.

Bubba brought his K-38 over and what a pain. its scale flanges jump the track with any little thing.
we forgot to turn the lights and smoker on because we was fighting the loco so much.

 

[Jerry Barnes]

Looks nice, but give me a loco that will run with no problems, I can handle big flanges/etc. Been wanting a pin nailer myself, but have never gotten one. Jerry

Gonna be some sweet pics taken this Fall going over that trestle What pinner did you get? I got the Grex 23 gauge and really am happy with it.

P.S. K-38? Was that a typo or who makes that?
