Dave, <br /> <br />I design highway bridges for a living. I also have the 101 track plans book. If you tell me which one you are interested in building, I will let you know what I recommend for the bridges. <br /> <br />Off the cuff, I think you should consider building a viaduct of short deck girder spans like the 30 ft bridge produced by Micro Engineering. However, if you need clearance under the bridge (for another track for example) you should probably use a thru girder bridge like the 50 ft span produced by the same manufacturer. Walthers also produces a wooden trestle model which may be more appropriate with your era or locale. Anyway, if you give me the plan number, I'll see what you're up against. <br /> <br />Ed
