Ralph,
The new road tunnel looks great .One thing I would add though would be a build date to both tunnel entrances (year only) .It would give the tunnels some history.Other than that Thumbsup .

Latest update: I have started to pave the main drag in downtown Mountain Gap. Still lots of work to be done in this area.

The sidewalks are poured. Still need to do some leveling so the buildings sit flush with the ground. Also need to add more alcohol/india ink so the joints in the sidewalk stand out a little better.

Mike, thanks for the kind words.

Ralph, I pour the crossing with plaster of paris and then take a sureform and smooth it all out. Then take a hack saw blade and cut the flangeways.
