Just finished a new covered bridge and uploaded to the file library here and at Trainsim.com


Please note, bridge is sized only to the size of a Railworks pickup truck and car.

Semi truck won't fit through it and train certainly won't fit.

Hi,

Awesome!!! So, who's building an Eastern US steam era route?!? !*brav*! !!*ok*!!
Or were these bridges built elsewhere too? If so, where in the US or Canada would have been the common locations for bridges like this one?

Cheers,
Michael

I wonder, was there ever such thing as a covered bridge built for trains?


If there was I might build one for the game.

Oregon is the covered bridge capital of the U.S. and Cottage Grove is the C.B. capital of Oregon. Near Cottage Grove is one of the only remaining covered railroad bridges in the West. http://cottagegrove.org/chambers.html

But a horse and wagon probably will! I'll find a spot for this on the Cimarron and Pacific. Thanks for another fine model.
