Update on the new switch lead & river crossing...

So after adding the new timber frame to the duck under and cutting out the plywood top I decided to continue on and place the new switch lead bridge that crosses the Susquehanna River and install the river canyon into the timber frame work.


The river is cut into about half of the timber frame work and contoured to provided a steep and gradual slope on either side.  The bottom will have a 3mm - 1/8" plywood bottom placed onto it and padded to stop those pesky head strikes on angled timber.

I also had time to install the front fascia for this section too...


The fascia continues the theme from the rest of the layout although a little shorter.
