Decided to go with Unitrack over code 55 due to the ease of use and ease of moving. I had a couple of areas that needed smaller bridges on curves. I cut a section of the roadbed out and built the bridge into the track section. Take a look, I think they turned out well.

    The curved sections maintain their radius pretty well while building. During construction I joined a short section of track on either side to keep the rails at their appropriate locations in the joiners.

    The guard rails are code 55 glued in place.

    That really looks good. Could you tell us a little more about building the bridge?
