I'm blushing Matt 

oh it's completely prototype and a complete story line behind it. When I get time I will elaborate. 

 

Thank you 

Makes me want to revisit a spot on the old Redlands Loop where the ATSF line paralled the SP line to Crafton. There were two small bridges across a creek -- one a full wooden trestle (ATSF) and the other more modern for the SP line (probably wood with concrete footings. The ATSF trestle is a ruin but is still there; all that's left of the SP bridge is the footings.

Eric....I have that same through plate girder bridge but in black.   What a beautiful model!    I've talked to Peter through that famous auction site about doing these with square end girders, and he is going to look into possibly doing these at some point in time........   Please keep us posted with pictures as you make progress in your project.

Erik and i discussed some ideas and he made a sketch (above) and i set out to design and build the modules to support it.  Comments were made about prototype accuracy,  so Erik did some research.  Guess we didn't miss it by much judging from the photos he found.  Stay tuned,  there may be a 3rd rail in the picture yet!  Prototype: Alamosa/Antinito line of the D&RGW,  San Luis valley branch.
