I have yet to explore the full line of Artisan structures. In part because they are large (& heavy - cost lots to ship), I suspect they didnt sell well. I got this bridge for about 1/3 retail.
Yes, I read somewhere that you could remove the Fastrack. Not easily though. Its held down with like 8 screws. I love the ppl on the base and will try to move them onto my finished river floor. Not too much of a fan of how they did the base water.
I agree. It helps too that I got it for about 1/3rd retail. Next challenge is to scenic the pylon lifts to resemble stone put vegetation at the base. The plan is to paint entire river floor like this: ua-cam.com/users/shorts-UY5sBcfbLY?si=Vk1eV2zWudbIFs0
Keen eye! I normally do wear shoes in the train room. Discovered the hard way that the little metal Atlas rail joiners hurt like hell when you step on them😲 Was super excited to unbox and setup the bridge (first wife-recommended layout purchase 🤣). Super appreciate your comment. I should have the inner loop running by the next video.
The bridge. It looks pretty spiffy! 😊 🫡
These Lionel Artisan Collection accessories really do add scale detail and realism to a layout. I wish I had room for such accessories.

Bridge looks great Ken.
Looking good! I like it! 👍👍
Thanks dude. The plan was always to replace the MTH bridge. I just happen upon the Rockville bridge when researching regional bridges.
Love the viaduct! I didn't know the FasTrack was replaceable, and it comes with a very nice base. 👍 - Ryan

Looks awesome! Can’t wait to see it weathered
You and me both!
Great addition to the layout, it's going to look fantastic.
