Specific Item Information: The grandfather of bridges, authentically duplicated in plastic. This Truss Bridge is the most common steel bridge found in North America, if not the world, and fits both steam and diesel eras. Can be easily modified in length or width to fit all your needs. The importance of this bridge design was that greater distances could be spanned, resulting in less supports. A river or gorge can be crossed with fewer piers while still supporting sizeable loads.
This Plastruct Kit reflects a 120ft-0in (36.5m) long, 17ft-0in (5m) wide (single track) steel truss bridge.
Road Name History:
Although they may be molded in color, unpainted and unlettered, undecorated products are marketed to modelers who seek to custom decorate their models for private roads and/or road and/or company names that were not commercially produced by any of the major manufacturers.

Undecorated models are frequently also unassembled or only partially assembled and required modelers to be comfortable with glue, paint and sometimes solder in order to prepare their models for display. Materials for these models can vary but often include plastic, pewter and resin. Models may or may not come with decals or other decorations such as plastic signage, railings and ladders to enhance the appearance of the final product.
