Large Scale Central

Double track trestle jig

Looks great - it fits right in! Nice work.

That looks mighty fine, Ted. It’s obvious you put in a lot of time on this project.

Thanks guys. When I get home from my Christmas vacation in Florida I’m going to start on the bridge section. Already have some of the necessary wood cut but need to cut up a lot more.


My Howe truss bridge to continue from the trestle. Still need to make the abutments.


Finally getting back to the outdoor layout. Started laying out the Timbers around the perimeter. I notched the ends then used PT 2x6 pieces to join them. Drove lag bolts in to hold the joints together.


This is my area where the layout will be. Started putting grade stakes in going to try and start with as level of an area as I can. I’ll be putting in drainage pipes and electrical piping then back file with 1 1/2” screened reclaimed asphalt. It should make a great base and not allow too much unwanted growth.
