Thank you Gerisplarail1 for the detailed pictures. The bridge looks like it is more green than the teal one in the ad. Is it greener or is it the picture? I wonder why they didn't also make it so a regular 3" yellow riser could be used to brace the middle if one was so inclined? And what is the need for that special connector piece? Hmmm..bet they had a doozy of a time trying to design a curved bridge probably exactly why we don't see more of them in real life. Smile Did the set come in a box?


If you are having difficulties posting a picture, this is what I do with Photobucket...just copy and paste the IMG link into your post for each pic. Like this...

It is darker Green than promo photo, that stuff sometimes changes between development and release. it is a shame you can't use a normal girder instead of the special one which doesnt give much support not to mention cant be used except for ground level of layout. The connector piece is actually the best part you can change the sex of either side of the bridge without 1/4 adapters
as is with the other 2 new curved track parts.

My assumption is, that this was trial of this bridge on the market, it also consists of many pieces that have trouble supporting a moving train properly. So if sold alone they may have problem with price to high because of the different pieces needed and then customer complaints on the bridges function.
