Joined: 02/04/2017(UTC) Posts: 25		Greetings all, I'm curious as to what is available out there, regardless of what brand, in finding a bridge or combination of bridges to span an approximate 16 1/2" straight distance of elevated track. The entire layout is C-track and ideally, the bridge would also accommodate C-track. Thank you for any helpful tips. George

If it is going over a big valley, I love the Bietschtal Bridge by Faller...

Its a matter of fitting the layout to the dimensions of the bridge, or fitting the bridge to the dimensions of the layout.
