Well after seeing Manco’s idea!! http://www.mylargescale.com/Community/Forums/tabid/56/aff/9/aft/112269/afv/topic/Default.aspx I went to Lowes and got the supplies! I used the glue by the Manufacture of the pvs parts. I also used brads as pins so bridge stays together! I screwed some pieces together… So, I still have to paint it. I’ll paint it red primer.
Bridge is just under 6’ and is stronge enough. Sean
Very nice ,Sean…it’s made of plastic ,something like a pvc channel??
Nice work Sean That stuff must be fairly strong.
Very nice job Sean and skewed for the location too. I’d be interested in knowing how well it bears the weight of trains in operation. I love working with PVC but I haven’t tried a bridge with it yet.
Nice bridge. How did it work out, cost wise?

Neat Bridge!!!
So I’m out in this deluge washing the PVC bridge ( Wife thinks I’m nuts) so it can dry, before I paint it!
As I was hosing it down, I noticed that I forgot some thing!!
Water leter outers!! Duhhh!!!
As you look @ the sides, the chanel points up!
Also each upright forms a pocket!
So A drilling I go!
Rewashed and hosed it , and low and behold water is not colecting!!
I then put it next to the furace to dry!
