Seeing Richie's link starting off last Weekend's Update, I got to tell you that the New River bridge is BIG. It is a site that should be seen.









I had the pleasure to do a custom job of the New River Bridge in HO. Here is 2/5 of a bridge span. Each of the five section was 32in or 160in ( 13.33ft) total length for the HO bridge.

Spent a few days in Missoula to chase the Gas Local in February... need to get back before MRL's a memory:

Robbed of sun but it's still about as good as a location gets (almost) off the side of the road for an EB.

A couple weeks ago in Cheyenne I caught a flagless UP repaint.
