Under Beam Girder Bridge ...... and curve!

Curved Beam Bridge 025
Curved Beam Bridge 009
Curved Beam Bridge 027

This Under Beam Bridge was required for a raised section of 45mm gauge railway. However the approach to one end of the bridge was an elevated curve (LGB R3). It was requested that this should be incorporated into the overall bridge structure if possible without a dog-leg appearance.

The result was achieved by the addition of two short straight sections. These were connected to each other and the main bridge structure using sturdy sideplates bent to the appropriate angle.

The parapet rails running the full length of the bridge help to reinforce the visual effect of the curve.
