Very nice, a lot of trestle to be inspected. How does the track hold up in Flagstaff winters. Bill

There's usually some beams on the trestles and bridges that need to be reglued and renailed every spring. When constructed, they were glued and pinned together using an aircompressor and pin gun but the Ryobi cordless nail gun is a lot easier to use in situ. I usually try and restain where needed as well. Overall, though, it holds up pretty well and the last two winters of 13.5' and 9' of snow were a lot. By far the biggest task is cleaning pine needles off but the sweeper car does a great job of that. I'll post some more pix next week after I've had a chance to start doing the really fun part of garden railroading---gardening!
