Mike, Another excellent episode with very useful information. Really glad to have a channel building projects and models in HOn3. I finally subscribed and the start of Vance Junction (number 60) looks like it will be a neat series. Looking forward too the journey. Thank you.

Cool. I created the overall project video after I created the trestle 39-A video, so a little out of order but the rest will flow.

The RGS Story Vol. 1 has several pictures of the trestle and a drawing.

[@mccarvillestudios]

Thanks, I will check that out.

Nice! I've explored around here and figured there was a bridge here but didn't know it was curved! Very neat! Was there a way leading into the bridge off the RGS main?

Okay, so you know 39-A is near Vance Junction, right? The tracks from Vance Junction go north and south (roughly), and the track to Telluride breaks off there, goes east and downhill over the San Miguel at bridge 39-A, and heads back uphill towards Telluride north. It kind of does a loop to the south to drop down over the river, then goes back north and uphill. That loop's south end is that trestle.
