The drop down bridge is finally installed and works well. Had it not been for a post on the CSX Dixie Line about building a folding bridge, my wouldn't be done yet but it was a very easy install and works great.
I did have one problem that im not real excited about. One of my turnouts landed on the seam for the drop down bridge i very well couldn't cut it in half so i was forced to let it overhang an inch. being that the switch over hung i have no place to install a manual ground throw, so i had to use an electric switch. as longs it don't get snagged on anything their shouldn't be any troubles.
In other news I was forced to change the inbound track work around the Coal mine. I aparently mesured incorrect and my inbound tracks were to short. Leaving the end of the train out on the main line. The change ended up working out better all aournd. My in bounds now run behind the coal mine instead of in front next to the out bounds from the flood loader. if you scroll down you can see how it was originally planed.
