My Bridge{other hobby}
   this is the Niantic River bridge in Niantic Ct we pass under it everytime we go in to Long Island Sound to fish. It's hand made and operates 1/4 scale and it's on my 10x32 foot lay-out and this is my winter hobby........

Re: My Bridge{other hobby}
Looks great!! I use to do a little of train work when I was young, But never could get past the crash and burn thing!
I use to light things on fire and burn them up! Should have been there the day my mom came home smelled something burning, I was in basement with tracks on fire while racing the train thur it! That was the end of that hobbyb :'(
