Seems to be the place for everyone to show off their bridges. Here is mine. It is from my Oakhurst Railroad - The trestle over the Fresno River, Willow Creek, and the branchline to the North Fork sawmill ...

Nice work, Jon, and a good job on the composition, both in the scene and in the photos.

This is a great thread with some stunning modelling.
I've only got 3 bridges on Sweethome Chicago. This is the only one that carries trains

Ripped this bridge out today and redoing things, hope to have the scenery done in a few weeks. The two track helix really makes this bridge effective and is a fun place to stack up trains.LOL...John
Here's some shots that contain the mediocore bridge.....

If you guys haven't seen Cliff's layout, you owe yourself a treat. And be sure to click on the 'Video's' link on his home page.

This is a great thread and I love looking at all the great pics and I hope my bridges will be half as good as the modelling I've seen in this thread.
Just please, no one say that "size doesn't matter"!
Okay?

If I can get the photos to load on this new forum, here's a photo of the bridges--newly installed--over Malakoff Hydraulic Diggings (also newly installed) on the layout.

Nope, and I followed Bergie's instructions to the letter.
Now what?

time and time again you all out did me
I guess I'm not the only one that likes a spectacular bridge on the layout ...
you guys have spent some serious time on these,
I know you have inspired a lot of future layouts
way to go
This is our only bridge at this stage on our layout. It is not permanently is place yet, but I love to share.

Anything is possible if you do not know what you are talking about.
Don't know if its the best, but it is my largest and I like it best because I scratch built it.

Alan, that is a great scene. What I added was cliff to the ceiling, and then put N and Z scale trees and scenery at the top for forced perspective. It makes it look even larger. You could do that and improve an already great scene.
