Curved Deck Bridge


       This O Scale bridge supports track making a quarter of a 42 inch diameter circle. The three truss support beams carry the trusses and the stringers over a switch and a number of tracks running below them. The whole assembly is 4-1/2 inches tall, and the piers supporting it will be taller than those shown in order to accommodate the traffic below the bridge. The "channel iron" ties at the end of the outside stringers are made from Evergreen Plastics I Beam stock sprayed black, the tie rods are piano wire, and the nut/bolt/washer castings are from Grandt Line. The bridge is made from recycled old growth redwood.
