Although built for vehicular traffic rather than railroad use, The Range Line Road Bridge, a single-span Warren standard truss bridge, would be a great subject for a model railroad layout.

The simple bridge could be adapted for a branch line track bridging a small creek or gulley, or for a roadway overpass.

It’s simple design would be easily replicated using sheet and angle stock, either brass, or for the ultimate ease of construction, styrene.
