Has anyone ever tried to model or seen a model of this unique bridge? I'm in the process of building my dream layout which is based on Chicago, long distance trains, commuter line, freight and an "L" . I have a river with an original post-war 313 Lionel bascule bridge (converted lifting power- will post that later) an also the re-issue of the Lionel Hellgate (albeit a NYC bridge) crossing the river. I was thinking I could have my elevated line cross the river modeling on the Wells Street double deck bridge. The original bridge , 1922?, was recently rebuilt but from the pictures I've seen it looks very much like the original design.
