Getting Bridge Alley going again

Now that the bascule bridge project is done I'm working on the connecting bridges.
I didn't realize the difference in the abutment height required by the deck girder and truss bridge.
I had to make an abutment and ran out of my concrete paint so I'll have to lighten it up later.
Otherwise everything is going as planned.

Getting ready to pour the murky water. I painted the bridge track, installed one walkway on the truss bridge and planted some cattails.
I also made another abutment with the track coming off the berm. Not to much left to do. Finish the planting the tall grasses when ever that order shows up. Then just the deck girder walkways. Rico says he walked across bridges with no walkways. If a train happened by there would be no Rico here to help manage the site.
