Bridge safety railing ideas?? | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Tom TeeOGR Forum Member

Need bridge railing for an assortment of bridges. Different styles OK. Some curved, some straight.

There are about 47 linear feet of 8 custom masonry bridges with a damaging fall potential on which I want to install some kind of safety railing to restrain a floor fall.

That's 94' total length of functional fencing. Thoughts? Thanks.

Tom.

Steve Grabowski sells Lost wax brass PRR style handrail posts that when soldered together with brass rod can make a good looking strong safety railing as long as needed - curved or straight. Steve usually has a table at Strasburg. Here are photos of ones I used on a stone arch bridge.

Pages 12-17 of the Plastruct catalog (plastruct.com) list several railing sets in O scale.
