Narrow Gauge Bridge Track

[charland]

I'm building a tie treatment plant/ I'm using the narrow gauge track that's in xTracks v 3,22. I need two short sections of bridge track to go over the pit in front of the retorts but I can't find any bridge track. What are people using for bridges as in the RGS route where there are lots on non-ballasted trestles?

As one possible option, the Madera Sugar Pine route is packaged with a limited number of narrow gauge "bridge" track sections without ballast. The route is in the file library here, as msp1.zip. Within that zip file is another zip called MSPTracks1.zip which contains the bridge track shapes.

Thanks, I'll have a look. Might be a situation where they want you to make the route a mini route, trying to stay away from that.

Could you not just make a couple short pieces of narrow-gauge bridge track and install them via .w file editing an existing piece of the same length?

You probably could just make the short track pieces but I'm trying to figure ut how to get each track piece to move to one side (rotate each piece) and have the door open to allow you to move cars in and out of the retort. I'm also wondering if this will work properly with the two retorts being only 15 feet apart, if you hit Ctrl+9 to activate the door will it activate just thje door on the track you are on or both doors.
