    And look!

    No diagonal braces on the trestle bents.

    Wrong thread, but noteworthy nevertheless.

    Tower bracing wasn't required on a trestle of this height.

    I wonder if I should remove the side bracing on my Castor bridge?

    Busy times to be hauling a coach behind as well!

    Thanks for sharing, Jim.
