Highway overpass & Town project on the Longmont Terminal & Northern

Watch out for that old bearded guy, he likes UP, C&S, CB&Q, AT&SF, CRI&P, GW and D&RGW.  Depends only on which way the wind blows.

Very nice.

It looks really, really good. Can't wait to see it finished.........this afternoon.

I agree. This overpass looks very good. Excellent work!

Looks great. Fit the space nicely and you executed the construction masterfully!

Nice bridge, nice curve and nice UP train!

well done Erik. the guardrails are nice!

Looking good.  Mine is no where near finished.

They look like Crow River to me.

Love how that turned out. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Erik,

Is that a 61 Chevy Bubble Top coupe in your earlier pix!

Awesome!

Bill

nice progress Erik.

your use of HO railings on the bridge is similar to my use of HO products in my recent cement plant build. storage tanks and power transformers.

I can't help but wonder about the lack of any guardrail on the outside perimeters of the layout. We've installed 3" strips of doorskin material on all of our areas where the trackwork is close to the edge and without protection from trains going off into thin air and the subsequent result of gravity.

Looks great, enjoying the progress pictures.  

Eric,

I just saw this thread!  The bridge and highway are turning out great!  Thanks for posting!

 I posted before that the guys who haul the stuff in and out of shows are what keeps the hobby growing into the future. It's pretty thankless job that is a huge sacrifice of time, effort, talent, $$, etc.

 Watching the young kids faces at some shows, is what will determine if they are hooked! There's magic in them trains I tell 'ya.

Hi Erik,

The first thing that hits my brain when I see your stuff is the high quality of the photography -- before I even get into the content.  

HOW DO YOU DO THAT?

Camera type?  Real photography using f stops and shutter speeds and focal lengths and specialize lighting?  What?  

HELP ME.    Lift the veil of ignorance from the great unwashed..

Dirty up that tanker on the bridge, and it would look like the tanker in the 1971 Dennis Weaver movie 'Duel', directed by Stephen Spielberg.
