More hoppers, please.

 

No layout scene to sport them yet but another dozen DMIR ore hoppers added to the roster, was a heck of a find at Scale Model Supply last Winter.

All brand new is almost unheard of.

 

More hoppers please.

Another bridge, please.

 

Bridge #1 sure turned out excellent John.  Can't wait to see #2

Love the aerial view of your beautiful work Wayne.

Stratton and Gillette looks great on that fine old school truss Kevin.

Great job on the deck girder Angelob.  Can hardly wait to see the abutments in place.

 

    Bridge #4 while in progress.

 

More bridges please.

Now back to water towers or columns...

How about a "water bridge"? There's a column there, too, in the left frame.

I saw a few of these bridges with spouts on them that the PRR used. This is a "kitbash" of an IHC gantry and Tichy spouts.
