Walthers HO Scale / Operating Single-Track Railroad Bascule Bridge -- Kit - 33-1/2 x 3 x 11" 83.7 x 7.5 x 27.5cm #933-3070 The Walthers Cornerstone Operating Single-Track Railroad Bascule Bridge
is based on one of the most popular designs with railroad engineers.
There's always plenty of action wherever railways meet waterways. Here,
you can often find lift bridges, designed to move up to provide
clearance for passing ships. Hinged at one end, the bascule design opens
like a jacknife. It requires less space, has fewer moving parts and can
be partially opened to clear vessels of any size. It can also be raised
and lowered quickly, making it the ideal choice for busy rail lines.
This working model captures the same intense operation and fine detail
found on actual bridges. Big enough to look right, small enough to fit,
it's equally at home handling big steam or modern double-stacks. The
kit is complete with detailed plastic parts that capture all of the
rivets and cross-sections of the steel work. A large concrete
counterweight simulates the massive lifting assembly of the prototype.
Rounding out the details are the bridge tender's shanty high in the
beams and a brick trackside interlocking tower. Hidden inside the
Operating Single-Track Bascule Bridge is a reliable, low-speed motor
that raises and lowers your bridge like the real thing. - Part of the Cornerstone Engineered Bridge System
