Hi All!
I am in need of a double track 16'' truss bridge. Does anyone know of a product or design plans to build one of these bridges??
Any and all suggestions welcome.
Thanks!

You can buy Plastruct's HO kit and have the plans enlarged 181%, then buy the corresponding Plastruct pieces--make the bridge to the desired length. What you do with the HO pieces for the bridge is up to you--perhaps use them in your new bridge.
Don, sounds great, how do I go about seeing/getting this bridge??
Pingman, nice suggestion.
Thanks,

Strange. I cannot find their link any more. maybe John or Ben will pipe in.
If you go to the scenery forum, there is a list of of sources of which you will find bridges.
Contact RonO45, I see his daughter is now in the bridge business !!
Don, I thought this was the scenery forum?
jhz563, is that for real or on inside joke??
also, how do I send messages directly to certain forum members? I've never done that before.
thanks,

john look up RonO45 and then in his profile he will have his email address so you can email him I would suggest thou to put OGR Forum in the subject line so he knows it's not trash
At the very top of the scenery forum there are various headings of fixed topics that the moderator puts in and they do not move. Look for the scenery source list that provides numerous places to find retailers that sell scenery items.

Didn't mean to yank you chain. The same time I saw your post there was another active thread by RonO45 about his daughter building a successful bridge for a school project, I assumed you had seen it.
If Silk City doesn't work out, I think Plasticville's truss bridge is 16" long. It's only single track, so you'd have to make your own base and top for it.

Hi JohnJr,
We are not really in the bridge building business. As jhz563 mentioned, I just posted a thread last night with my daughters bridge she built for school.
So are you looking to build something or buy something? There are lot's of bridges on the market by various companies.
Ron
J white, thanks, I will check them out.
Ron045, I'm willing to build or buy. In order to build I would like to have some plans/diagrams to go by.
Tx,
JohnJr

John:
I build wood truss bridges and can customize to fit your needs.
