Walthers Cornerstone HO Scale Steel Railroad Bridge Tower Bent 2-Pack Kit - 933-4555

Walthers Cornerstone HO Scale Steel Railroad Bridge Tower Bent 2-Pack Kit - 933-4555 provides the structural supports needed to build impressive HO scale steel railroad viaducts and elevated bridge scenes. Part of the Walthers Cornerstone Engineered Bridge System, this kit includes parts for two detailed steel tower bents designed to support deck girder bridges of varying lengths. Based on a common prototype design and suitable for steam-, diesel-, and modern-era layouts, the tower bents can be adjusted to three different heights for greater flexibility when fitting a bridge to the surrounding terrain. Browse the complete Walthers Cornerstone model railroad buildings and structures collection for additional HO scale structures and railroad infrastructure.

Steel tower bents are especially useful when a railroad must carry its tracks across a deep valley, uneven terrain, roadway, or other obstacle using multiple bridge spans. Rather than relying on massive masonry supports, the open steel framework creates the distinctive appearance associated with many railroad viaducts. Multiple tower bents and deck girder bridge sections can be combined to develop a longer continuous bridge structure.

Build an HO Scale Steel Railroad Viaduct

The Walthers Cornerstone Steel Railroad Bridge Tower Bent 2-Pack offers flexible components for constructing and customizing HO scale bridge scenes:

• HO scale steel railroad bridge tower bent kit
• Package includes parts for two tower bents
• Part of the Walthers Cornerstone Engineered Bridge System
• Based on a common prototype bridge-support design
• Suitable for steam-, diesel-, and modern-era layouts
• Highly detailed structural components
• Tower bents can be cut to three different heights
• Two sizes of concrete pedestals included
• Designed for supporting deck girder bridges of varying lengths
• Compatible with Cornerstone Standard 30', 50', and 70' Deck Girder Bridges, sold separately
• Multiple bridge spans and tower bents can be combined to model a continuous steel viaduct
• Each tower bent measures 4-1/2" (11.4cm) wide at the base
• Each tower bent measures 1-13/64" (3cm) wide at the top
• Maximum tower bent height: 10" (25.4cm)
• Large concrete footings: 29/32" (2.5cm) tall

Use the two tower bents to support individual deck girder bridge sections or combine additional bents and bridge kits to create a much larger railroad viaduct. The ability to shorten the towers to three different heights makes it possible to adapt the structure to changing terrain and create a bridge that follows the contours of a specific HO scale layout.

Expand Your Walthers Cornerstone HO Scale Bridge System

The Steel Railroad Bridge Tower Bent 2-Pack is a natural addition to Walthers Cornerstone bridges and infrastructure. Walthers specifically designed the tower bents for use with its Standard 30', 50', and 70' Deck Girder Bridges, allowing multiple components to be combined into a continuous elevated railroad viaduct.

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