Well, I compared it to the pics of I:305 and it looks like its around the same size.

Huh. Maybe you're right. It just looks a lot smaller compared to the train than I305...I take my criticism back. Keep chugging along, it's looking great!

The catwalk's handrails should be completely vertical, not slanted with the lift hill itself. /pointless nitpick (Oh, and set your textures in the simulator to 32-bit as well; it'll look much better without slowing down anything.)

The supports do look slightly off so far; some of the lower portions of the structure have "stretched" diagonal bracings. The diagonals are always kept at a 45????????? angle for almost any support structure and it looks far better when kept that way, so the lateral connections are usually spaced more apart as they get longer to accommodate this.

Other than that, I couldn't see anything that stood out with the trackwork, though I don't have as good of an eye for that.

You have too much bracing on the lift supports, there should be a few amount, like 7-9 (I believe that's how many I305 has), yours looks like it has 20 lol. And yeah, as CA_99 mentioned your catwalk vertical posts should be perpendicular to the ground.

Yeah, I was thinking that there were too many cross braces. I'm probably going to go back and fix all of the supports since I just threw them together quickly last night to get an idea of how to make them and how they would look.

Thanks for the comments.

Yeah the lift supports aren't actually all jagged, my comp just sucks.

Also, I took the advice on the lift supports and it looks much better now with less cross-braces.

Yeah same old boring stuff. I made some footers. And before anyone asks, yes it does pass the tunnel test on that support.

I've been wondering how to make those square supports. I can make a spine, and everything else except that. And I'll download.
