hi,
i'm a little new to the hoby. i just bought a bachman spectrum starter set and would like to purchase a bridge i liked from Faller. its the deck steel arch bridge which is 40 cm in length prod #222581. now, i realized that their length of track runs different. can i buy this bridge and make it compatibe with ez track oval. i want to replace that bridge in a straight part of my oval. right now my oval has four 5 inch straight tracks per side. ahh, cm's to inches!! :-)

it sounds like all youd need to do is to replace three of the straights on one side with a peice of standard Flexi-track from some manufacturer or other. Unless of course the EZ-track road bed fits withing the confines of the bridge.
Making the Faller bridge with your EZtrak will be easy. The bridge you are buying is a fine styrene kit. Once finished, the EZtrack will fit into the bridge channel. You may have to file the roadbed some to get it to fit. You could also get a length of flextrak then shim the bridge up so the rails match up. You may be able to find Microengineering bridge track that has the extra guard rails & etc.
thanks guys that really helps!! :-)
