Using only craft store sticks, stain, wood glue and a few bits of foam insulation you can build a trestle bridge for your model railroad.

Awesome segment...really good result...simple and effective...thanks for streaming
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.
Very nice bridge build. Think I'll be giving it a good ole college try. Cheers from eastern TN
Thanks for dropping by. Good luck with your build! I'd love to see it when it is completed!
Beautiful trestle! Love the stain.
I have some ideas for other stains for another bridge to build in the near future as well as a wooden tunnel portal. Thanks for watching, and your gracious comment.
That’s an awesome first scratch build….easy materials and great design 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Thank you. I looked at a lot of pictures to come up with that plan.
Thanks for watching and your kind words.
Very nice job 👏. Thank you for sharing......Wilmer

So simple. So quick. So cool. Great job!
Thank you! 😊 Glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for stopping by.
Looks great!
Thanks! Appreciate you stopping by and taking a look.
Like the trestle bridge. Right now, only have a small 1 x 7 switching layout but you've given me some fantastic ideas for when I expand.
Great to hear I am able to inspire in some small way. Good luck with your layout. Thank you for stopping by.
Super beautiful
Thank you so much. Glad you stopped by.
Great job on the bridge.
Thanks!
My next bridge is going to be an even bigger challenge. Stay tuned!
how about building a Z scale bridge using flat toothpicks?...i would love to see that
Sounds like fun
I’m planning on scratch building a S curve trestle like this through a bayou. Along with 4 other wooden bridges along the layout. It’s intimidating to start it honestly it’ll likely be about 5 foot long. The S wouldn’t entirely be just one trestle but inbetween a couple of sandbars until it crosses the bayou
You probably already know this, but make sure you have a straight section of track between your opposing curves in you S bend. It will help keep your cars from derailing. You wouldn't want them tumbling off the bridge into the drink!
Thanks for watching.
@@dcrrails3402 definitely planned for!
Excellent. Just start and the intimidation factor disappears as you gain more experience. It’s true with any project. Don’t let fear stop your forward progress. Cheers
@@dcrrails3402 they don't do that for REAL right-of-ways....whats the diff?
@@tommurphy4307 The model railroad rolling stock doesn't do well on an s curve, uncouples or derails. A short straight piece between the two curves eliminates that issue.
Nicely done.
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it.
Nicely done
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it, thank you for stopping by.
looks really good new sub here off the rails and GSB sent me this way
Glad you stopped by. Welcome aboard and hope you enjoy the ride.
You should replace the span over the lower track with some plate girders. There’s no way that your wooden span as designed would hold a prototypical train.
Thank you for stopping by. I based the bridge off of some photos online. It span over the water looks like the one I built. However, mine isn't as tall because I needed clearance for the trains below, so that was my compromise to make it work for me.
it worked in 'bridge on the river kwai'.....
