Looking good Randy!!!
Very nice “winter” project.
At the rate you are progressing it will be a fall project!

Depends. If he starts putting NBWs on every joint, he’ll be there until next summer.
Doug it’s a long way from done. It will take probably 8 or so more shorter bents and some sort of bridge at one or both ends.
LOL Bob. No NBW’s. Strickly the 10’ rule here!
Finished ‘work’ early today so did a little on the trestle. Some of the cross bracing between bents.

Nice work Randy
Now he’s talking to himself or I guess sending messages to himself.

Got some more done yesterday afternoon and this afternoon. The cross bracing done on one side, the stringers installed and now starting installing bridge ties.

Hi Randy,
Very nice stuff. Next time I’m in Merritt I’ll give you a call.
really nice Randy. You should have that in place by 15th of Nov.
Hans, yes next time you are in Merritt stop by. Bridge ties done. I will add longer ties for fire barrel platforms when I determine the locations.
