POSSUM HOLLOW BRIDGES & TUNNELS
All wooden bridges are built from scratch using scale size lumber
The large gray covered bridge design was copied from a real automobile bridge
Those are all individual scale boards inside and out
I put a lot of hours into the bridge & was one of my favorites
The metal bridges were built from either a kit or scratch built using plastic parts
Tunnel portals were cast plaster or scratch built from scale wood lumber
The girder bridge is an Atlas Girder Bridge
