on the Kadee web site they have drop down menu option "conversions" and there they list Bachmann products (among others) and show what size to use. I hope this helps.

Wayne,
Do you scratch build your abutments and footings?
I didnt take into account the footings and that will throw off my height.

why is the cork roadbed split in two down the middle instead of one piece?

what paints do you use on the plastic models? I am using acrylics but it doesn't seem to cover well.

HO / ribbed back wheels vs smooth back wheels

what is the purpose of the ribbed back wheels vs smooth back wheels?
are they just for emulating "real - life" railroad wheels?
thanks

if I have 85' open deck girder bridges, in order to follow a tighter curve can I just cut the girder bridges to say half the length?
would it be easier to cut the parts before assembly or after assembly?
thanks
Bill
