Hi Ian; no there won't be any trestles on my road, at least not for the immediate future. My area is mostly level so really no need for a fancy trestle system. I am going to dig out some gullies and ravines and run some bridges accross them. Thinking about a covered-bridge for one of them.
Best regards -
William i would love a raised monorail but alas where would you get one?
I would also very much like a covered bridge but in the tropics what would be the use for one?
The roof is to get the snow to fall off, i think, isn't it? To the best of my knowledge there aren't any in real life in this country, least wise i have never seen one.

Ian, it would be to the drawing board for the train and raised beams.
I have seen something like the channel braces they use to make "sun rooms" could make a track bed if you don't want to go beam.
In other words make the whole thing from parts and shells. I would say the testing would be very long for some things and less maybe for others.
Again if they made one, I buy it!
