I've been working on the bridge, trying to hide all the gaps & seams...

Looks great! Will you be connecting the 'front' and 'back' arches with some sort of stonework beneath the track?

I don't think I'll mess with doing the underside of the bridge...it's totally cosmetic...the track is actually held up by a piece of masonite...My grandson & I were busy casting those tunnel portals, & I thought that would be a way we could do a cheap fast & easy bridge!  He seems to be pretty happy with it! He said when we were building it that he wanted to have a tunnel & a bridge, & so we do! :mrgreen:

Thanks guys!
I think my next project with this one will be to add a small cabin next to the creek...

Excellent scene that seems to have a "charachter" of it's own. Good work!

I've started working on this little cabin to go alongside the creek...
![[Image: cabin1.jpg]](http://i93.photobucket.com/albums/l73/drew1125/KRA/cabin1.jpg) I'm scratchbuilding it from styrene... ocalicreek Wrote:... Might I suggest a water-powered grist mill? Y'know, when the plan was for doing HO, that's exactly what I was planning for that scene, but when we switched to O scale, both the scene & the stream shrank quite a bit!

Thanks Ed!
Here's the latest on the little cabin... ![[Image: cabin7.jpg]](http://i93.photobucket.com/albums/l73/drew1125/KRA/cabin7.jpg) The roof isn't attached here...as you can see I still have a little painting left to do on it... I still want to build a chimney, & I haven't decided what I'm going to cover the roof with...???

Nice Drew! I like the sagging supports and the color of the wood stain. Looks very convincing!
