I wanted one specifically for its lift out capabilities but when it was delayed twice I built my own. It sure is sweet. I can always swap it with the one I built. The only difference from the initial rendering and the one they had at York is the color of the piers. They were dark gray stone at first now they are a sandstone color. Either way it's a nice, well thought out piece.

Let's watch him put it back in the next video.

What, me worry?

I often said that the manufacturers should include "packing instructions" in every unit they sell or at minimal make them available on line.  Trying to get an item back in it's box for a repair or what have you without them is nearly impossible.  I always have a piece of foam or something left over.  You know they have a sheet for the folks over seas to follow.

Luvtrains,

yes, it does, in conjunction with the rolled tabs that the rails press down on when the bridge is replaced on the rails.

kooljock,

I was really hoping you didn't notice the bandaid, no Walmart looting, I thought the bandaid was more user friendly than the gash my grinder gave me! (A hard lesson regarding removing safety shields!) lol

glad to hear everyone enjoyed the video. Hope to make some more in the future, time permitting!

Thank you,

Mike

I got two bridges from Nassau Hobby.  I am really happy with Nassau Hobby.  Unfortunately, I had to cancel some of my pre orders last year do to some financial issues.  I asked if they would allow me to apply the down payment from my cancelled orders to my 2 bridge preorders if my financial situation changed by the time they came in.  They said that would be fine.  They contacted me this week saying that the bridges were in.  Since I got a new job in April, I was able to complete the purchase.  These bridges are very impressive.  Can't wait to put them into use.  After this transaction, I am no longer afraid to preorder with a down payment.  Thanks again to the folks at Nassau Hobby.

I am using it on a flat surface mostly for it's scenic value and at the edge of the layout so nothing can fall off onto the floor. I have had difficulty matching it up to the Fastrack without the piers. I am using FT to Tubular adapters and lightly crimp the bridge rail ends to the pins on the adapter. It can be undone if I ever use the piers but I kind of wish there were a "on a flat surface" mating to Fastrack piece.
