A bridge over Brokenstraw Creek | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

C.M McMahonOGR Forum Member

The 1:1 Corry & Columbus crossed Brokenstraw Creek at Columbus Pa on a modified Pratt Truss Bridge; being on a budget as far as space and costs(I have a daughter in grad school) I took a Plasticville bridge, cut some beams out and replaced them with Plastruct web beams....nowhere near completed yet but you get the idea, I am shooting for the feel of a late 19th Century/early 20th Century rural bridge......
