Got my new "Lionel" bridge from the Trainworx flash sale today.  This will be incorperated into my new 3x8 layout thats in the planning stages.  I can fit a single track O gauge or double track OO gauge line over the top using Lionel track.   I highly recommend checking out thier website for sales, they have a nice selection of building and bridge kits.  Something excellent to work on as we quickly head for another shutdown in places of the USA or to just pass the time while its cold and yucky outside.    AD

What colors should I paint it?  Its inspired by the 1954 Lionel catalog cover.  That bridge was a dark purplish blue with light blue lettering.  My other thought is a light green, like the bascule bridge base plate, and pale yellow lettering.  Not sure which colors to go with since I run early postwar and late prewar.  And if I find enough track, it might have a double track Lionel OO line going over it.  Which in my mind's eye, makes the bridge even more massive looking.  AD
