Here is an impressive bridge that will
handle your heaviest mainline rolling stock.
handle your heaviest mainline rolling stock.
I am proud to present my first kit! It is a solid
riveted steel Warren truss built in the early
1930's during the heyday of railroad bridge
construction. The bridge has a great, sturdy
look with large riveted beams and laced bracing.
The model is based on a prototype that spans
the West River in Brattleboro, Vermont. The
Central Vermont and Boston & Maine railroads
shared it for years, and it is still in regular use
today.
