[@michaelcipres4228]

Mike l really appreciate the detailed explanation and work that you do. This is the first time I've seen this and it will help me greatly because l was searching for information like this. Thank you for your sharing your experiences and may the Lord bless you. A friend.

So that's how you did it! Very good how-to video for making a curved bridge! Now if you'd only show on video how you curved the plastic of your Rix 1930s-1960s concrete highway bridge guard rails that was on your ACT 2 layout! That would be an awesome how-to video. Thanks for sharing these tips, Mike!
By the way, thanks for joining in the chat in my ON TRACK TUESDAY livestream earlier this week. The chat text scrolled by so fast that I didn't even realize you were there until I saw your words during the replay. I'm glad you stopped by.

Thanks so much Tom. I bent the whole Rix bridge using this same method.

Great Video. Feel like I'm in model railroading school. I plan on doing a 4x8 n scale layout so I have been educating myself before I start.
Thankyou.

Mike, Very informative video. Might do the same on my layout or the table top layout I am planning. You might give some thought to doing a few for sale as a trial balloon.

[@colnagocowboy]

Actually ive decided to use atlas code 55 but ive 2 kato straight bridges whats the best way to ttansition to/from code 55/80?

[@N-Scale]

@@colnagocowboy Put the code 80 joiner on and solder it in place on the code 80 rail. Then flatten the other side with needle nose and solder the 55 to the top of that side.

[@thomasralfenson2684]

Great to see it. I did it too. The plans from Woodglut helped me a lot :)
