Part 38: Pratt truss bridge.


M Graff

982 views

Hello everyone!

I have built a bridge that I've longed to build for many years!

Namely the Central valley 150 foot Pratt truss bridge in HO!

It may probably be one of the trickier bridge kits on the market ..

I think it may have something to do with that it is built of loose beams that has to be cut to the right lengths and angles ..... But the end result more than outweigh the difficulties.

I built it as a dual gauge bridge with both HO and HOn3 gauges.

With a bit of painting and weathering it will probably be a jewel on my layout.
