Walthers Cornerstone HO Scale Single-Track Arched Pratt Truss Railroad Bridge Kit - 933-4521

Walthers Cornerstone HO Scale Single-Track Arched Pratt Truss Railroad Bridge Kit - 933-4521 creates an impressive steel bridge for HO scale main lines and railroad right-of-way scenes. Based on standard-design single-track steel bridges constructed to handle heavier trains on railroads across North America, this detailed Cornerstone model is part of the Engineered Bridge System and works with compatible bridge piers and abutments. The tall Arched Pratt truss design provides extra clearance below while meeting NMRA overhead clearances for tall modern rolling stock. Finished dimensions are 23 x 3-1/16 x 5-1/4" (58.4 x 7.8 x 13.3cm). Browse the complete Walthers Cornerstone model railroad buildings and structures collection for additional HO scale structures and railroad infrastructure.

Steel truss bridges are natural focal points on model railroads, carrying tracks across rivers, streams, roads, other rail lines, and areas where substantial clearance is required below the right-of-way. The distinctive arched profile and open steel framework of 933-4521 give a bridge scene considerable visual impact while providing a versatile structure suitable for steam-, diesel-, and modern-era layouts.

At 23" long, the Single-Track Arched Pratt Truss Bridge can become a major visual feature on an HO scale railroad. Use it as a substantial single-span crossing over a river, valley, roadway, or another rail line, or incorporate it into a larger bridge project with compatible supports. The open truss structure keeps the bridge visually interesting from multiple viewing angles while allowing trains to remain visible as they cross.

Expand Your Walthers Cornerstone HO Scale Bridge System

The Single-Track Arched Pratt Truss Railroad Bridge is a centerpiece for Walthers Cornerstone bridges and infrastructure. As part of the Engineered Bridge System, it can be combined with compatible Cornerstone bridge piers, abutments, and other components to adapt the crossing to the surrounding terrain and right-of-way.

Combine the finished bridge with Walthers Cornerstone railroad structures and Walthers Cornerstone trackside structures to develop the surrounding right-of-way. Additional bridge components and scene-building details can be found in Walthers Cornerstone accessories and details.
