    Another look. You can also see I started work on the area on top of the tunnel too, getting ready for pipes and tanks there too.

    Here is what I got done today after church and between Grandchildrens naps and honey-dos.....LOL Adding the piping on this was actually harder then I thought. But, after alot of fitting and bending and going with two different sizes of piping, I think I got it the way I like it. :)

    Added some supports under the angled area, and started test fitting the pavement pieces on the bridge.

    After doing this, I figured its time to start doing something with the black gap from the bridge to the top.

    Back to the 'spare parts' box. Going to end up using pieces something like this. Just something to make the eye think there is more going on then really is.

    Love it, Jerry. Since most photos will be farther back, you don't have to worry about the bridge ending so abruptly into the hillside. Excellent!

    This topic is about to complete five years of going and growing. No re-runs, no commercials. Not even a thrilling year ending episode to keep us in suspense until next season. Unless someone shoots JR.... :D Hmmm. I wonder what would be the model railroading version of that plot twist?

    Well, we'd have motive straight off (Jealousy - why don't our layouts look like his?), but the list of suspects (the Trainboard membership) would take years to interview :we2-policeman:

    How about a cue from that great show from down south?

    "Looks like Jerry has found himself in trouble with the long arm of the law, on a short bridge. How's he gonna get out of this jam?"

    You need an orange Charger on that bridge!
