My work on the East Channel, West Channel and Pier 2 continues. I am using a Sharpie to inscribe lines on these piers. I am also in the process of installing lights in these piers. Here's a photo showing the installation of the navigation light as well as the supports for the pier floor (Pier 2).
It's also time to start test-fitting the Steubenville truss (Span #8) to the main span. First let's look at the main span sitting atop Pier 7.
Here are both spans being supported by Pier 7.
This is a shot from beneath the bridge. Note the bridge shoes / pedestals supporting the truss in the middle of the "pocket".
I must say that I am pretty happy with how this turned out. Even the coloration and weathering of the pier looks pretty good to me.
More when I know it.
GeorgeWhere is the backdrop photo from?
I have a similar scene and am looking for that type of backdrop photo.
Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Buzz,
The backdrops are a series of photos of the actual Ohio River valley. These were taken by RailroadBackdrops.com, a forum sponsor. They won’t be cheap but they will be excellent! I can recommend them without reservation. They work with you to produce the results you want and they guarantee their work.
You should check out their website. They have similar scenes.
