[Accrs-ho] New Bridge - Layout severed

[ACCRS HO Scale]

Oh fantastic. That takes care of "fix the helix wall for auto racks" from
our maintenance list. Sometimes the long open side autoracks would hit the
wall of that turn and derail.
Also bridge looks nice.

Here's what it looks like.  BTW, I had some work to do on the center
support later in the day and took it back this evening.  The bridge, center
support, and shims at the ends are in place but just setting there as in
this picture.  Please don't mess with it.

Group,

Gary and I pulled the old wood trestle out today and I helped him (he is
the engineer) create the necessary bench work to install the bridge.
The bridge is built, etc.

Please don't handle the bridge.   It was left up on the layout on the
track going into Mesa.   The scenery is next.   I will be putting that
in over the next week or so.   Until I get the new bridge installed, you
can not use the helix going up or coming down from Summit.

That tight spot everyone complains about going into the tunnel that takes
trains to the lower level under the city is gone.  There was way too much
plaster there and a couple of whacks with a hammer and the top coat fell of
and left a perfectly useable under layer.

You can still test run on the lower tracks like 11, 12, 14, etc.

Hope to get it back up running soon.

Dean
