looking good steve! you've inspired me to do a covered bridge, as and when i next venture into the back garden.

hey up duncan!! many THKS u for the lovely comments..yes it inspired my members as well!!!!!...so best way make sure tht any locos,steams,boxcars go in and out as it mite stuck tht why make sure put the locos in and see if will go in and not to stuck!!!!!!! if i build up..stain it and then ran the locos...it will mite stuck inside!!!!!!.....PAINSTAKING coz one of my boxcar is jammed inside the covered bridges this morning and check it..found it was too close the body so i have to trim down!!..lol.......

if anythin wrong inside..just unscrew the panels off and look at it!! save hassle!!,,if u nails it,,it USELESS......GRRRR..best use screw.....wink....
any question mate...?
before i did made one yrs ago with nails!!!...thought ahhh shud have A screw!!!
