Walthers Cornerstone HO Scale 90' Single-Track Railroad Through Girder Bridge Kit - 933-4503 models one of the most common North American railroad bridge designs for HO scale main lines, branch lines, and other rights-of-way. Part of the Walthers Cornerstone Engineered Bridge System, this plate-girder bridge features the track running between the structural girders and can be used as a stand-alone crossing or as an approach span for a larger bridge. Finished dimensions are 12-1/2 x 2-3/8 x 1-1/2" (31.7 x 6 x 3.8cm). Browse the complete Walthers Cornerstone model railroad buildings and structures collection for additional HO scale structures and railroad infrastructure.

Through girder bridges have served North American railroads for decades and are typically used for relatively short crossings. Their distinctive design places the track between riveted steel plate girders rather than above them. The 90' version represented by 933-4503 provides a substantial span for crossing highways, waterways, other railroad tracks, and similar obstacles while remaining appropriate for steam-, diesel-, and modern-era layouts.

Build an HO Scale 90' Single-Track Through Girder Bridge

The Walthers Cornerstone 90' Single-Track Railroad Through Girder Bridge combines a widely used prototype design with flexible options for building realistic HO scale railroad infrastructure:

• Ideal for crossings over highways, waterways, and other railroad tracks
• Build with an open or ballasted deck
• Includes optional center girder for conversion to double-track or a wider right-of-way by combining kits
• Authentic rivets and other structural details
• Useful as a stand-alone bridge or approach span for larger bridge projects
• Compatible with Walthers Cornerstone Engineered Bridge System abutments and piers
• Designed for WalthersTrack Code 83 Bridge Track 948-83004 or other suitable HO track, sold separately
• Plastic parts molded in dark gray

The 90-scale-foot span makes 933-4503 especially useful when a longer plate-girder bridge is needed without the height and visual mass of a large truss bridge. Install it across a roadway, stream, river, another railroad line, or other scenic opening. The optional center girder also gives modelers additional flexibility when creating a double-track or wider bridge installation using multiple kits.
