Trestle pics

Posted by Anonymous on Monday, November 1, 2004 1:02 PM

I'm interested in building a HO scale wooden trestle and was wondering if anyone has any pictures of wooden trestles that I could use as a reference.

Check the Cochise & Western Model Railroad Club's HO-scale layout at http://users.ssvecnet.com/cacole for an 8-foot long, 180-degree curved trestle made from two Miami Valley Products kits. We've since added a second set of tunnels and trestle inside this one so our entire layout is now double-tracked.

If you'd like to see larger, more current pictures I can e-mail them to you.

I have a few, and could snap a few more if you needed. How big of a bridge are you looking for?

You have several options

One is Railimages.com the other is Kalmbach's book on Bridges. This book even gives you trestle blue prints.
