HI, the Bridge doesn't come with rails of its own. The bridges I have built are two in number. For my home layout, I have them in Code 75 and for my club layout, they are in Code 83. You should use a piece of flexitrack from the type of code you prefer (at least 3 inches past the end of the bridge) and attach a check rail to the inside of the track using spare rail from the type of code you prefer. In the past I have used either traditional track spikes or super glue. As an example, you can build the check rail of code 75 if you use code 100 track, so you can paint it rust black, and the track cleaning process won't rub off the rust paint. There is always rust on the check rails. If the flexitrack doesn't quite line up with the rest of the track, you may want to use it anyway to ensure that the machine runs smoothly.
The size of the pair is about 8 inches tall and 18 inches long, both in good condition. The lighting was made more realistic by using dull white lights, and I rusted it to make it more realistic. I really like this I highly recommend it
There is a chance it will fit, but it will look strange. In that case, you are better off using straight or flex track type 100, but it is going to be challenging to connect that back to the EZ track system and to maintain your gauge at the joints. very nice scale model, and, as most Ez track users, I would assume that eventually you will consider upgrading from a train set to a railway empire collection. I think it would be best if the whole layout was changed to code 100 rail and ballasted.
It does fit with the Ez track, but you'll have to glue it to the bridge or find a way to lock the track in place.

It took a long time to assemble this bridge. There were a lot of pegs too big for the holes they were supposed to fit in. Earlier this year, lattice work in the building was notched to 90 degrees An angle of about 60-degrees, but for most applications it would be closer to 40-degrees Since the notch was bigger than the arc, it had to be carved out. As a result of some ineptitude on my part, I used three different types of glue, including super glue, but still had trouble keeping it together Complete the puzzle with the right In the end, it came out looking good after painting it flat black to cover up some of the imperfections.
20 inches long and 5 inches high is the finished length of the bridge. The current dimensions of the kit are defined by Amazon as the dimensions of the box it As it turns out, it is longer than that, and it is a nice quality kit with lots of details. It's a big job to put this together, it's not as simple as just screwing the sides together. Having a nicely detailed kit to build is a plus, but if all you want to do is grab it and stick it down on your layout, then this kit is not ideal. You will need to provide your own track, abutments, and retaining walls as this kit does not include any of these.
There could have been more clarity in the instructions. It took a little trial and error fitting before I was able to glue the pieces together, based on the picture on the box. It has a great look on my layout, so I was very happy with the product as a whole.
Thank you for your quick arrival!.
This kit has a lot of nice details. The process of building it will take you a few hours. I had a lot of fun doing it with my son.
I found the software to be very convenient and easy to use.
I think this would be a great addition to the.
The item can be purchased in a convenient way Generally hard to find in the local area Since it was not quite to scale, I will use it as a template to make one that is to.
