This is in preparation for a new support structure which will be covered with TREX\u00ae composite decking. The TREX\u00ae corporation has generously donated the decking for this project and we welcome them to our family of Garden Railroad Supporters. Look for special TREX\u00ae advertising in the future including a special TREX\u00ae train car! This preparation has taken up most of the Summer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"473\" height=\"1024\"
