Trains can now safely pass over the Greene River on my UP St. Marshall Sub layout.
This Walthers Short Span Concrete Bridge kit was fun to build, and very customizable for different installation needs.
This video highlights the steps I followed to build the bridge. For the most part, the instructions were sufficient. Just think through the entire build process before starting, so you have a good idea what needs done and in what order.
Basically, I used left-over Christmas wrapping paper to tape all the parts to after I cut them from the sprue. This way I can work efficiently by focusing on one task at a time. Cut everything, sand everything, glue everything, then paint everything.
By taping the parts to the paper, I can write their part numbers with the parts, in case the kit takes several nights to build.
Weathering was straight forward with Pan Pastel chalks, but you could airbrush the weathering and it would look just as good.
