Track spacing for MTH 2 track bridge? | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Lee 145OGR Forum Member

I am building a siding. Each end is a 072 switch with a short 3 inch section before a 072 curve back to straight.

The track center rails are 6.60 something inches apart. Does this spacing too wide for the MTH Bridge that is capable of taking two rails?

The MTH Double Arch Bridge has the track exactly 4" apart.

Thank you for the answer. I think to re-plan and use a single on each track. Probably one arch and the other girder for variety.

One of my "Canons" regarding track is to always have a straight between an S curve at least as long as the longest rigid wheelbase engine you have.
