I've finished now as i've run out of some of the wood I need to continue. Nice and sturdy, looks like i've overdone it on the sturdy factor, but it's done now and at least I can run 2.7m with legs at each end on no supports in the middle.

It's been quite difficult to judge the actual width of the room at the ideal height for the viaducts. The higher the running lines, the smaller the fiddle yard area because of the eaves. So when I realised I'd reached the end of the wood I mocked up the heights. It all seems to work.

Hello Tremayne,

 

you made quite a good progress for one day.

Hope to see any updates in the near future.

After my wife's flight was cancelled I have an extra day and a half for building! I'll make the most of it.
