I have build 2 10 inch styrene track structures with catwalks and extended ties. They are unpainted and do not include railings, 3rd rail or signals yet.

Nice job Joe - they look great.
Awesome Joe, absolutely awesome! Are you going to add the railings anytime soon?
Hi Brian, railings will be added after I complete and paint the catwalk for the entire 52 inch length of the structure. Right now, I have only 20 inches done and the parts that I need to complete the catwalks have yet to arrive at the hobby shop. Also I will soon be leaving on a 2 week vacation.
Awesome man!
HEY JOE HOW WERE THOSE MADE?
Would like to know as well. What materials are you using. Good stuff Joe!

All plastruct parts. 5/16 inch channels and I-beams for pillars. .030x1.25 ABS sheet for track girders. .030x1.50 cut ABS sheet for cross girders and curved corner bracing. .030x.250 styrene strip for girder sills. 3/32 inch angles for girder web, "X" bracing, lattice bracing, and Warren truss. .187x.020 cut styrene to support the bracing and truss at the joints. 5/8 inch beveled wooden cube for pillar support. .030x.187 styrene sheet to support extended ties. .187x.250 styrene rod for the extended ties. .125x.125 styrene rod for the catwalk.
I hope that's enough.
