Specific Item Information: That bridge built with dark limestone is located on the railway line from Tiefencastel to Filisur in the Swiss canton of Grisons. The Landwasser viaduct is a 136 metres long and 65 metres high railway bridge of the Rhaetian Railway and considered to be an emblem of the company. That curved viaduct is composed of 2 bridge elements with ballast, each one 45° long (can be shortened to 30°) featuring an average radius of 193 mm. Its clearance height with pillars is 57 mm (6 pillars of 38 mm). The bridge elements can also be used separately. The viaduct set can be operated with a single track and contains in addition 2 tunnel portals that perfectly complete the set.
Model Information: Polystyrene structure kits. Some kits are unpainted while other kits are painted, but relatively easy to assemble.
Road Name History:
Bridges and Piers are an important component of transportation.

A bridge is a structure built to span physical obstacles without closing the way underneath such as a body of water, valley, or road, for the purpose of providing passage over the obstacle, usually something that can be detrimental to cross otherwise. There are many different designs that each serve a particular purpose and apply to different situations. Designs of bridges vary depending on the function of the bridge, the nature of the terrain where the bridge is constructed and anchored, the material used to make it, and the funds available to build it.
Brand/Importer Information:
Faller is a German toy company founded in Stuttgart in 1946 by brothers Edwin and Hermann Faller. The company later relocated to the brothers' home town of Gütenbach in the Black Forest.

Faller now specializes in making scenery, plastic model kits and other accessories for model railroads but has manufactured a range of toys during its history, such as model aeroplane kits, the Auto Motor Sport (AMS) slot car racing sets and die-cast model cars. Their modern product line includes railway structures, houses and commercial buildings, bridges, amusement rides and terrain accessories in H0, N, TT and Z scales, as well as the Car System. Since 1997 Faller also owns the Pola brand, which is now solely devoted to G scale structures.

Faller's older toys and models can be highly collectable today, together with their early product catalogues.
