i got a really good deal on a used double track truss bridge that i planned on using to cross my duck-under. problem is at the time i got it , i was planning on using all atlas track. now i have been accumulating gargraves and ross track. my question is can i successfully mate the gargraves / ross to the atlas bridge?

Yes, just power the bridge tracks separately.

This is Atlas to Atlas, just match your track to the bridge that is separately powered.
domer94 I unscrewed the atlas track off my bridges and added more ties to pieces of GarGraves track and screwed it down to the bridges. The ties don't completely cover the span between the box beam but I just ran some balsa wood along the edges of the ties so you dint see the top edge if the box beam. I ran my Big Boy, Allegheny and Y-3 across 3 of those bridges for 12 years and never had ant tracks move at all. Choo Choo Kenny
The Atlas rail joiner will attach to the bottom of Gargraves rail and the rail height matches. No need to remove the bridge tracks.
Gargraves to Atlas with the Atlas rail joiner, you have to dremel off the bottom profile of the Gargraves track.
thanks guys. when i get to that point i will probably use the connectors as indicated.
