       This is an HO scale bridge.
Before paint:
After paint, but before my final process that will be applied to the block work:
I will post another photo after my final process to the block.
And, still have to make the wing walls.

       Beautiful work.  Great details. What's it made of?

       Yes - would love to hear how you did it.  Is this scribed into foam?
Hope to see more progress shots as you continue...

       Actually this is a build up of thin layers of foamboard, glued together, and scribed vertically, very lightweight, strong, has an imbedded wood deck for the track, and I have yet to finish the wing walls on the ends.    I thought I would try my hand at HO, since everything is so much smaller, and I am pleased with the way it has turned out, thus far.    Still have to do my final process to the stone block, and make the wing walls for the ends.    Will provide a final photo.

       Tim, I think that is a very nice looking bridge.  Your method of construction sounds easy, and it is obvious it is effective.  I will look forward to seeing photos of it when completed.
