Mr. (?) Booth, The book, Bridges and Trestles for Model Railroads, is published by Kalmbach. If it is in print, I would think you could buy one with a quick search on the internet. Otherwise, I would think you could buy one through an online auction site. I once tried to submit something to MR and it was sent back with a note stating that they were not interested in articles of that nature. I thought I would try again later, maybe with the National Model Railroad Association. I am thinking of writing two articles eventually. The first concerns building a model railroad bridge on a skew. An article was recently published in Railroad Model Craftsman discussing how to kitbash a Central Valley bridge kit in HO Scale for a skew. The second article I am considering concerns small bridge foundations and site preparation. I find most of the kits available to be very good quality with regards to bridge superstructure but not much is understood about the piers and abutments. IMO a quality bridge model includes a quality foundation. Incidently, when looking through the N Scale catalog for Rene', I noticed a good trestle kit is sold by Campbell. It costs more than I would like to pay, but you may find it quite suitable. Good Luck - Ed
