I just measured my bridge and the track centerline spacing is 2 3/8 in. or 55.5 mm. Hope this helps.

I dont know what the official c-c spacing is for the tracks, but the out-to-out dimension on the truss in the Walthers catalog is five inches. I would like to caution you that I have been told this bridge does not have adequate overhead clearance to run double stack cars. If this is important to you, you may have to do a little kitbashing to lower the floor system enough to provide the vertical clearance.

Good Luck - Ed

You might want to check the Walthers catalog or their website. usually the demensions etc are listed for each product.

Walters double-track truss bridge
Posted by rpc7271 on Tuesday, March 12, 2002 9:28 AM
I am designing a new layout and want to include at least 1 Walters double track truss bridges (part #933-3012) Does anyone know what the track spacing for this bridge is or in what issue of Model Railroader it is reviewed in? Thanks
