Description
The Kato N Unitrack Plate Girder Bridge in Red is a popular choice for adding realistic elevation and crossing points to N gauge model railway layouts. Kato offers these bridges in different lengths and types.
Here's a general overview, covering the most common "red plate girder bridges" they produce:
Key Features (Common to most Kato Red Plate Girder Bridges):
- Manufacturer: Kato (well-known for their high-quality and reliable Unitrack system).
- System: UNITRACK. This means it has an integrated roadbed, making it easy to connect with other Unitrack pieces without needing separate ballast.
- Gauge: N Gauge (1:148 or 1:160 scale, fully compatible with N gauge).
- Type: Single Track Plate Girder Bridge. This design is typically used for shorter spans where the entire depth of the bridge girder is below the track level.
- Color: Red. This is a common and visually striking color for bridges, often seen on railway lines
.Construction:
- Integrated Roadbed: Provides a clean, finished look and stable running.
- Nickel-Silver Rails: Durable and offer excellent electrical conductivity.
- UniJoiners: Kato's signature connection system ensures secure, reliable physical and electrical connections between track sections.
- Realistic Detail: The bridge structure itself often features molded details simulating rivets, beams, and track-side walkways.
Compatibility: Fully compatible with all other Kato Unitrack N gauge components, including straight and curved track, viaduct sections, piers, and other bridge types.
