Great job on the bridge, first 1:1 type bridge build I have see where it is built in place. Tha is a showpiece part of the layout!

Nicolas,

Shultz bridge looks great!

BTW, do the lights work yet? I’d love to see it lit at night. (https://largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-wink.gif)

The lights do work. I hope to have some more updates and you should get a chance to see them.

I would have preferred to not take the track away during the build so the railroad would maintain operation. That was part of the goal of building it in place. I did end up taking the track away for that section, but it was very quick to put back if I needed to test it out.

Here is a video comparing the 3rd major update to the railroad with the prior two milestones.

Added the “S” so we ALL can view it!

Ooops. I fixed the original link. For some reason I thought one had to remove the S to make it work.

It still doesn’t have the “S”.

if you log into LSC with https: then you want the pictures to have the https:… but if you don’t log in the https, but use http, then you can see the http: pictures, but the https: people cannot.

if everyone would use https: there would be no issues…

my firefox doesn’t even show me, if it is logged in with or without the “s”.

Nice work !

Here is an update for Schulz Bridge.

You should be able to see the construction photos here (no need to sign in to Facebook).

Construction Photos

I don’t do Facebook but as the man stated you can certainly see the construction photos.

then korm, you have an additional problem… jus came in https:// no video in Nicolas’ post, but Joes fix showed… then took the “S” out of the address, and both show.

If you get no videos at all with or without, you have an additional problem viewing videos… won’t derail the thread… check your stuff, browser, flash, test on youtube, etc.

Korm,

If Firefox is NOT showing https://largescalecentral.com/forums you are NOT logged into the secure LSC. Change your bookmark.

My apologies for lack of updates to the railroad. Its still up and going. Since I posted I have

*Added pneumatics to all turnouts. This involved building a custom throw bar and mechanism to accommodate having the turnouts below the support boards

  • Reinforced quite a few areas in the railroad that had boards warp on ends.
  • Finished landscaping one small section
  • Rebuilt the entire section along the rain garden.

I’ll give more updates at some point in the future when I am able.
