New cribbing

Track and Trestles
#1

I had a small section of my line that needed some erosion control. With some recent rains and snows the balast was starting to wash away some. This a project of have been wanting to do for some time but had other things to get done on the layout. I could have used some rock. Would have been the easy way out but I decided that to get more detail I would build some cribbing. I just finshed it today and planted some moss around and ontop. Looks prety good.

I also finally blocked off power to my siding. Now I can control the electric with the flick of a switch. This siding just goes out to the mine [IMG]

Nice! I like cribbing and short walls. Good for a view separator, or just some neat scenery.

Nice effect Shawn I think the cribbing helps blend the road into the landscape

She does, but I keep telling her that it is better then hanging out at the bars. everytime I take the swifter to the tracks to clean them she shakes her head and she says I can do the house floors next.

Nice.
I have lots of places that need cribbing as well.
Next spring.
That’s why you always keep your bridge scraps…
