Thanks Bill & Peter.
I went to the CVMW website and downloaded the directions for building their HO
bridge kit. Quite an undertaking. You basically build the trusses, girders and
braces from flat stock and then assemble the bridge. At this level of work, if
you had a model to copy or a set of good blueprints/plans you could almost
scratchbuild a bridge just as easy and in the correct gauge. I did say almost.
Peter, you struck a memory cell. I have one of these Walthers bridge kits put
away at home from my 2000 journey into "S". At least I'm consistent, I still
want a bridge. Wow, that's really bad. I better look around the house before I
go out and buy more S stuff....I might already own it. :-) Sad..really sad.
Bill, I agree, reducing should be easier than splicing in new material to
widen.
I'll report back after putting the mic to the Walthers kit to see how it scales
out.
