I really like the elevated trestle system. I have not seen that before. Which system or mfg is it if you dont mind? I am trying to figure out my track plan and would like an elevated track as part of it.
Thank you

This was designed and 3D printed by me. Each arch is made up of 4 pieces glued together (plus the 2 adjustable feet) and the side girders were printed in 8 inch sections pinned and glued together.

You might be able to reproduce in wood or some other medium depending on your skills or if you know someone who would print them for you I could give you the needed files.

Here is one that I made probably 20 years ago (with the help of a skilled friend) all wood

Of course there are companies that make similar products.

I've often been asked to make items for people but don't do that.
