Video Description:
Zach loves trains, so much so that he added a railroad track in his backyard with the world's longest railroad trestle (for a ride on train) which comes to just over 680ft. It took over 3 years, hundreds of piles, thousands of railway ties and many many nights after work to complete this unbelievable feat. A plumber by trade, Zach needed to figure out almost everything as he went, but the end result is beyond breathtaking (and fun to ride!)

That was really neat. I still have my fathers 1926 Lionel train set.
What a remarkable project. Can't imagine how he built it alone.
congratulations Zach -- excellent job you did!
Boy you have done an amazing job building this railroad, absolutely brilliant , nobody could ever say you are lazy.....top job.
If this gentleman ever decides to retire from plumbing, I do believe there are a number of companies that would consider hiring him as a civil/mechanical engineer. He certainly is a talented and determined individual.
Now that is quite a "BIG" accomplishment.
THAT IS AMAZING
