Next bridge on the construction schedule is to span this large gap where a river will be. It is fairly high and I am holding up a warren truss section from a central valley kit I built some years ago that was destroyed during my last move. I will use these same components to scratch build the mid section here. the track has a curve at each end as it crosses the river so I will have to build some plate girder deck sections on each end.

Cement Plant


The cement plant with the main large structures in position. I still need to scratch build the kiln, machinery tower for the other end of the kiln, storage building, coal unloading shed and all those conveyors running here and there. The grain elevator is being used for this cement plant since the building architecture is similar for both industries.
