Here's 2 pictures that he is working on w/the bridges. The 1st picture is on his layout & the 2nd picture is the real bridge. He's in the process of making bridge peers to hold up all those bridges.
Holy waaa. Thats one heck of a bridge! I didnt think you had that much room to eat up? Yea thats cool modeling that, but are you compromising too much area for this??
