    I have an idea there might be. After posting my new bridge in N scale I had complaints "What about Z?". Its already in the works, both scales, as long as there is enough interest in Z modelers anyway. The sides will be lasered in 3D, layers added and then cast into resin for a good solid concrete look. They will be kits. don't know the price yet but it should be well within reach.
    Here is a photo of the first build, changes will be made to improve the details.

    Second that, I am looking for a bridge for my harbour area.

    Maybe we need to include a couple of drifters sitting around a burn barrel with some trash scattered around to make the bridge scene complete :eek:)

    I might be interested. Can you post the dimensions? I am particularly interested in how many tracks can fit below.

    Karin,
    Me too. My interest mild to estatic depending on dimensions , also how many tracks can fit above and since it's a kit, how hard it would be to turn it into a highway overpass.

    Its a bit early to give you the dimensions as I have only made the bridge in N so far which is 11" long. I can also assure you that trains will fit under the arches since the N scale can.

    Mark, it IS a highway overpass, I have been asked to make it a train bridge also but I would like to see some prototypical pictures first.

    I'm not worried about clearance, I am spanning some yard track and want to know how many tracks I can fit in without jogging them around. Distance between the bases would be sufficient and I can do the math if you want to post the existing N-scale dims.

    That makes it more interesting. Any chance for approach ramps at about a 5-6% grade?
