After having entirely too much fun this summer doing anything but working on the railroad, I am finally back at it. Started to build the landscaping contours around the Napanee River -- which forced me to expand what I was using to represent the viaduct. Today it is a two track arrangement and there are traces on the existing stonework that at some time it was widened to handle the second track. With the usual poetic license and rather extreme compression, the original river valley has been reduced to a section of the falls. I started out with a nice section of brass bridge that was almost protoypical, then realized that I needed more segments -- and the original vendor was no longer available. Sigh.... Cutting blue foam to build up the landscape. Trying to decide how I want to represent the river curving around upstream with miles of falls and still places suggested in a few inches.

Anyhow, here is what it looks like at this point in time:
