Replacing wooden Viaduct

<p>When i started building my railway a couple of years ago i built a wooden Viaduct from Marine ply but its begging to show the signs of age and the great british weather does not help.</p><p>Wooden viaduct as is </p>

[Pauly]

also I really like how your lines evolved Steve!

I remember when it was some track suspended in the air on bricks and bits of wood with a little stainz shooting round, threatening to fly off into the pond...
