Does anyone have pictures of Ross's Deck Girder bridge?

Is this an elevated bridge so train can run under as well?

If not can someone stear me in the direction of a product that is economical and easy to use?

I am looking to model a structure as shown:

The Ross bridge is basically their turntable structure, including walkways and safety railing, but without the house and house platform, to be used as a stationary girder bridge.

 

It does not come with any abutments, so you can mount it at any level you want and build your scenery up to it.

 

The shape of the girders at the ends would not make it suitable for use as an elevated railroad structure as in your photo. One of the other commercial products designed specifically for an el structure, such as the system by Bridgeboss, would be better IMO.

John, This is who I was telling you about last Saturday. They had a very good display at York.  East Cost Enterprises trainlayouts.com deck-bridge as with Ross the piers can run up the price.  Their Deck Bridge pieces match up with Ross switches and track perfectly.

How may feet of deck-bridge were you looking for?  Unless you make it yourself it is going to get costly quickly.  I plan on using some but just for specific features.

Sent you an email with their flyer.
