POST YOUR BRIDGES on Layouts
starfire700:
I have 2 American Flyer wooden trestle bridges on the upper level of my layout. One is the long bridge with lights and tele poles, missing 1 pole.
I also showed a Marklin overhead foot bridge......does that count as a bridge?
Terry:
Here's two more American Flyer bridges:
Black shelf unit is 4 feet long. Lower is Salt Lake like Jim's above but with a different plate. I have both poles but only one light. The small ramps are usually missing.
Shorter one is O gauge. I sold an O gauge one like the one above, but with a bridgekeepers house on the top in the middle a year or so ago. O gauge doesn't get ramps.

Sure it does, thanks for posting I never saw one before. You too Terry.
There are trestle bridges and some bridges have trestles. :)
Copy and paste,
A bridge is a structure that connects two or more points allowing access across railways, rivers, streams, ravines, etc., whereas a trestle is a framework structure that some long bridges are built upon. That framework consists of vertical, slanted and cross pieces that are used to support the bridge.

My trestle bridge.

Your trestle is real nice. I love it. Birds on it too.
