Over the past few months we have been working on building a bridge for the layout based on West Side Lumber companies Tuolumne River bridge. Today we had our first work session of the season. The crew brought the bridge outside and placed it in place.
Still a lot of work to do to complete the bridge but trains are now running again. Our goal is to have the bridge fully complete by TrainOps.
Following are some photos of the install today.
