P&LE Beaver Bridge, Cantilever design, HO gauge L. E. Diorama MAO $1,099.00

The river barge in pic 1 is HO scale and is a ringer! I will build out the remaining 8 models on this listing and then retire this bridge. A model now is a good time to order. I now offer piers that provide the appearance of either cut stone or poured concrete. Photos of dioramas under constfuction.

Note, i undertand "space" can be hard to come by... I have the ability to tailor my models to meet youe "space" requirements. My models are beautiful rellicas of hostoric & iconic bridges.

All items designed & hand-crafted. In USA by Vietnam Veteran. Always enjoyed building things rather than blowing them up. Note My items are NOT mass produced. They are hand crafted and tailored to specific customer needs. My models will last 100+ years or more so I put time into them as required. Photos of some of my P & LE Beaver Bridge dioramas being completed. This is a model that will set your railroad apart from all others! I Offer this model in several scales. Main span maximum Length At 10 feet (120) in length /871 scale feet long in HO scale. The prototype is 1,409 feet, not including approach bridges. I can tailor the bridge to. Photos give you feel for the mass and size of the model. HO Locomotives include Genesis SD60 Series Conrail units and Kato & MTC SD90macs and SD70Aces. Like the prototype this is a massive bridge. You can Literally have a cup of cup while watching your long drag freights or high balling Limited's cross the span. I have the flexibility to tailor/vary length of the design and height of piers to meet your space requirements. Please specify HO regular clearance or HI Clearance for those running heavy steam engines or modern HI Cube equipment. S&H added to final invoice. This is a great bridge for a serious modeler, club or large layout. Note, diesel locomotives in photos are UP SD90-43Mac by kato and a couple of Conrail SD60s series units by Athearn/Genesis.

Use extreme caution when incorporating model into your layout as Aluminum is an excellent conductor of electricity and represents a shock hazard!

Imagine this bridge as a significant point of interest on your layout! Developing a number of historic and noteworthy "steel" bridges to compliment my line of limited edition, signature series, stone, brick and concrete bridges, viaducts and structures. Always impressed with these engineering marvels. True Icons of the Iron way.

The P&LE was an interesting railroad. The "Little Giant" funneled massive amounts of raw materials into the Pittsburgh area and end products out to domestic and offshore locations. Neat railroad to model or base a generic railroad on the theme.

As of 2013, with 103 years service, the "Beaver" bridge, was and is, used in heavy daily revenue service on this busy CSX high density traffic corridor. Bridge is an engineering marvel and an excellent candidate for my new series of limited edition, signature series bridges. Designs will be offered in N, HO, S & O gauge. Iam interested in expanding my product line to include historic & famous"steel" designs that are found on class 1 railroad mainlines. These bridges, often taken for granted, span large rivers and have played a major role providing a seamless rail transportation network in the United States.

Today, after many decades of service, they are an intregal part of our transportation network. Ihave offered a line of architectural models, including bridges, viaducts, tunnel portals, retaining walls and structures found along the right of way since1989' I originally started out building models replicating subjects I could not find in the market place. Goal is to offer several "Steel" models, intermediate to large designs, with good level of detail, a structure with sufficient size and detail, not exact, but close, capturing the character & mass of the prototype. Designs geared for the serious modeler.

Help me to access level of interest in producing this product. Model will be offered in Completely assembled, ready for display or incorporation into your club, home layout or diorama.
