Maximizing the overall height of the bridge

I
f you operate scale rolling stock and need the maximum amount of clearance under the
bridge use both the FasTrack elevated trestle pier and the tubular track elevated trestle pier
to achieve an overall height of 6.9", enough space to clear Husky stack cars and auto carriers
with ease.

Combining two or more bridges

T
he pier system has been designed to allow you to connect multiple bridges to increase the
length of the span the bridge crosses. By combining two 6-82110 FasTrack Extended Truss
Bridges you will have a total of 4 pieces of each bridge pier. One set of piers will not be used
when combining two bridges, two piers will not be used when combining three bridges and so
on. Construct the bridge end piers as described previously. For the center pier use both bridge
mating top pier halves to place on top of the pier.
