Maybe a few extra rails on the side of the bridge just in case if the wagon or engine decides to fall off the rails

This is such a fun project to watch come together

The bridge on the river Kwi needed you. Well done sir. Remember what happened to sir Alec Guiness. Queen and country first always. LOL.

Placing a 2x10 plank or diamond plate steel in between the bridge rails would make it easier to walk out onto the bridge to spot your drying wagon. Adding a ship ladder off to the side of the bridge next to the chimney would make it easier and faster to get below to open the trap doors of the wagon. You could also make a small platform at the top of the ship ladder so you can add hand rails to the ship ladder without fouling the rail car clearance.

Best tool review EVER. No faffing about with technical specks. It's yellow and it works.

The centre plug usually falls out at the locating pin (usually for centre punch marks) has a spring behind it in the arbor which pushes the plug out. Though occasionally the plug gets wedged at an angle so you just pry it off the end of the broach cutter with a screwdriver or something

Excellent work! Though I think perhaps now the next step is to get a proper buffer on the end, just in case those trucks decide to be troublesome one day...

3:43 Look how those metal shavings come to attention when the magnet is turned on.

Things are looking good. Just needs a bit more ballast, need to work the sticky sections out of the track, and a team of goats to clear the right of way. Lo!. Keep up the great work.

I have a suggestion for your end stop. It looks like the loaded hoppers are putting a lot of leverage on it, which could be a problem especially if you plan to use the sign to position each car. On a real railroad this is often solved by using what they call a "wheel stop," which looks like a wheel chock bolted to the rail. It could be added in addition, because the sign would help keep the car from flipping over the end if you hit the wheel stop too fast. As a side note, there's also a thing called a skate (search "railroad rail skate") which can be set down anywhere on the rail to keep a brake-less car from moving. These are sometimes used at the far end of a hump yard to keep the railcars from rolling too far. I hope one or both of these ideas is of help.

That way you could even use cars of different designs if you should ever want to evolve them. Although the clamp should be very heavy duty, and not just hand-fastend. But real buffer end stops (the ones with the buffers) are also just held to the rails with friction, so that they can bleed of the energy of a fast moving car, instead of just getting ripped appart.

You might make a track maintenance cart, with a small hopper for ballast, and a mount for a grinder or wire brush machine (Battery powered) to clean the track surface of rust and crud. Start the grinder. and roll the cart along the path leaving a clean, fresh rolling surface,. Add a oiled pad to oil the track to delay rust. Good luck!

Would be really cool if you added some wooden planks to the in-between of the bridge that way you can easily push the wagons.

Think those I beams could hold a few ton before they bend bro. That drill is sure a big help. Safe travels

Free drills are always the best drills.

Well done Vevor. I have used them for heavy duty full extension hinges. You are using oil, which is better than water or nothing. Try and get some solubile oil for coolant, that is what is used in industry. Its diluted with water and has better cooling characteristics than oil. It’s called slurry and mixes up white. Look after the cutters, don’t let them get hot. They are expensive. Keep up the good work 👍

Nice drill setup

and you have that nice man will to help

As a fabricator/welder/machinist I have used a mag drill many times. They are really nice if you have a hole to drill in the side of something. You don't have to hold it up and drill at the same time. YAY! This is great until the power blips during a storm⚡ or some dolt unplugs your cord🤬. Yes and yes before you ask. If drilling on anything other than a horizontal surface, tie the drill to something above where you are drilling so you don't end up wearing that drill that may be still turning when it comes loose. And yes I've had it happen. It sucks and hurts. You have to be safe... That looks like a really nice drill and the coolant feed is spot on. Cheers Terry No, I didn't beat the guy up that unplugged the cord. I didn't want to get fired. 😎

Excited to see what else you build with the new drill. I think you will find the magnetic part will hold it to vertical surfaces as well. I also think the stop could use some diagonal bracing.
