Largely an American development, the various forms of the truss bridge can be seen on railways throughout the world. The Through Truss is less common in the UK however the lower Pony Truss design we have here is quite at home in the narrow gauge setting.
The bridge is carefully constructed in a range of aluminium sections
The design follows full size practice based on the Pratt Truss 
configuration invented in 1844 with vertical members and diagonal 
sections that slope towards the centre. 

This is a very sturdy construction, well capable of carrying heavy locos
over a full metre span. The intricate detail makes the Pony Truss 
Bridge a centre of interest on any garden line.
​The bridge is individually made by hand. It is supplied in its bare metal state and can be left to weather naturally or you can prime and paint it. Note we don't supply it highly polished! It bears minor scratches and scuffs from the process of construction which certainly do not detract from the appearance of the bridge.
 
Longitudinal plates are placed at a suitable distance to support 32mm and 45mm gauge track. The bridge does not include any decking but you could easily add your own wooden planking or a zinc diamond pattern grid. The length of the bridge allows it to be supported by the end 10-20mm of the beams.

 The bridge is supplied fully constructed as shown in the photos. Obviously the rolling stock and track are shown for scale purposes only and are not included.
 
 
We would be happy to respond to enquiries for custom made bridges of this design which could be supplied within a three week delivery period. The width can be varied to suit the smaller Mamod size rolling stock or increased to provide a double track.
