Back in the day

Looking towards Occidental. October 27, 2023

Forest floor details nearly complete, July 30, 2024

A few more layers of water are needed, July 30, 2024

Overhead trestle area. April 22, 2024

Two big trees set. Working on scenery between trestle logging spur track. Next from trestle out to the corner.

Prototype stats:

Curved wood trestle just north of Occidental

Mile Post: 68.7

Length: 393 ft.

Height: 24 ft.

Researching maps for Maquire Creek brought up Lancel Creek. Have not found Maquire Creek on any map. The search continues. Living in Occidental I have visited the approximate location of the trestle but did not pinpoint its location.

The model is scratch built and has over 250 pieces of custom cut scale basswood and nut/bolt details. The trestle has been set, but will need to be weathered.

Note: I welcome any corrections to the data provided. (dwelamshop@protonmail.com)
