Originally this was going to be a 3 span Eaglewings bridge. But… one span was destroyed in shipping and SWMBO decided I needed to make a lift out section instead of excavating a walk under ( ) sooo… I sold two to Bob and got these . The EW bridge was too, too heavy for this back to lift out, so now we have 46" section that is removable. The foundation is 4, 2"x8"x16’ PT planks screwed together to make the footing. The tripod at the end was used to hold it level while I packed and tamped the sand. The rest will be 3/8ths pea stone fill and then rock plants etc. Need to know what kind of overhead clearance I need for 1:20.3 stuff…caboose, K36, 37 … Bob, Stan, anyone More later
The towers are glued to a PVC base with silicone in all the seams. These will be screwed to the PT foundation once all are aligned in position.
Note: Plug for GMM See the other Garden Metal Models bridge to the right. This is a great product
