Fit seems very accurate.

Cheers, Mark.
Mark,

Thank you.  Went together better than I expected. A few adjustments and shaving were necessary of course.

You're right.  It barely fits the allotted space.

Nice work. I see the newer one has an ACI label. They still looked pretty new when I started hanging around the tracks in the late 1960s.

Fencing depends a lot on the location and era. I don't recall much split rail fence in New England after the Civil War - in places settled by 1820 most of the hardwood big enough to split for rails had already been cut, and each plowed field generated new stone every spring. I don't know the upper Delaware and Susquehanna drainages that well, but I have the idea that split rail would have been an option through Dave's period.
