Well I'm getting ready to start on my 3rd level of my ICG Sparta District and I am in need of a Pratt Truss Bridge a sclae length of 250-260 scale feet long.The total length of the Bridge that will span the Kaskasia River is 5 feet 4 and a half inches.I see that Micro engineering makes the plate girder bridge it will take 8 of those 4 on each side but I'm in need of the main structure if it is not made by one of the model railroad companies where else can I turn to someone who can scratch build one and for what price.Any help here would be appreciated. Thanks Blane
Blane, This may amuse you: http://www.micronart.com/2083_Med_Pratt.html I've build 3 of these beauties in Z scale so this should be a cinch in N scale. Cheers, Jim CCRR
Wow Traincat, that bridge looks like work of art. I will be ordering from you very soon. BTW: When I see a stocking status of "RESERVE" does this mean it's out of Stock?
It means that it has been released for HO, but still in the design phase for N. Pete, the Whitford bridge is 380ft or 28.5" in N. The Canyon Diablo will be 550ft or 41.25" in N.
Hey Bob I ordered one of your Pratt Truss Bridges I just hope I can manage to put it together correctly I'm all thumbs when it comes to that,but I am glad I got one.I figure I won't be to exact on the length of 862 feet Iwill have it at 782 feet so I guess that other 80 feet won't matter anyway.I'm still going to like the 58.5 inches this will give me so I won't complain at all.Thanks guys. And Thank you Bob Thanks Blane
