Walthers Cornerstone HO Scale Steel Railroad Bridge Tower Kit - 933-4554

Walthers Cornerstone HO Scale Steel Railroad Bridge Tower Kit - 933-4554 provides the tall structural support needed to create impressive HO scale steel railroad viaducts and multi-span bridge scenes. Part of the Walthers Cornerstone Engineered Bridge System, this detailed kit represents a common steel tower design used to support deck girder bridges of varying lengths. The tower can be built at full height or cut to three different heights, giving modelers flexibility when adapting a bridge to valleys, waterways, roads, and changing terrain. The kit measures 4-7/16 x 4-1/2 x 11" (11.3 x 11.4 x 27.9cm) before final configuration.

Steel railroad bridge towers are a defining feature of tall viaducts, allowing railroads to carry tracks across deep valleys and other obstacles using multiple bridge spans. Rather than using massive solid piers, the open steel framework creates the distinctive appearance associated with many prototype railroad viaducts. Walthers designed 933-4554 so multiple towers and compatible deck girder bridges can be combined to create a continuous viaduct tailored to the available layout space.

Build an HO Scale Steel Railroad Viaduct

The Walthers Cornerstone Steel Railroad Bridge Tower provides a versatile structural component for building and customizing HO scale bridge scenes:

• HO scale steel railroad bridge tower kit
• Part of the Walthers Cornerstone Engineered Bridge System
• Common prototype design used with various types of railroad bridges
• Suitable for steam-, diesel-, and modern-era layouts
• Highly detailed structural parts
• Designed to support deck girder bridges of varying lengths
• Tower can be easily cut to three different heights
• Two sizes of concrete pedestals included
• Designed for use with Cornerstone Standard 30', 50', and 70' Deck Girder Bridges, sold separately
• Multiple towers and bridge spans can be combined to create a continuous steel viaduct
• Assembled tower length: 4-7/16" (11.3cm)
• Width at base: 4-1/2" (11.4cm)
• Width at top: 1-13/64" (3cm)
• Tower height: 10" (25.4cm)
• Large concrete footings: 29/32" (2.5cm) tall
• Small concrete footings: 1/2" (1.5cm) tall

Use the Steel Railroad Bridge Tower as the central support for a tall multi-span bridge crossing, or combine additional towers and deck girder bridge kits to construct a longer viaduct. Because the tower can be shortened to three different heights, several towers can be adapted to changing terrain while maintaining a continuous railroad bridge deck above.

Expand Your Walthers Cornerstone HO Scale Bridge System

The Steel Railroad Bridge Tower is a natural addition to Walthers Cornerstone bridges and infrastructure. Pair it with compatible Cornerstone 30', 50', and 70' Deck Girder Bridges to create anything from a compact elevated crossing to an impressive multi-span steel railroad viaduct.

The tower also complements the Walthers Cornerstone Steel Railroad Bridge Tower Bent 2-Pack 933-4555 when developing a larger bridge project. Add Walthers Cornerstone railroad structures and Walthers Cornerstone trackside structures to develop the surrounding right-of-way, while additional bridge components can be found in Walthers Cornerstone accessories and details.
