Re: Pratt Truss Bridges

Bob;
I thank you too for sharing your information. I do have a set of John Maxwell's drawings you mentioned and will probably be getting others as well as photos. I just need to figure out which photos would be of benefit me most. I will always be thankful that Bruce is following in his Father's footsteps. Just like John, he is always so helpful.
I will start searching for the book you mentioned, Volume 1 of George Beam and The Denver & Rio Grande. Certainly sounds like a good addtion to my 3rd Division Library.
Incidently, for those that might be interested, John Palecki is working on an On3 kit of the D&RGW Pratt Bridge that was located in Utah in the narrow gauge days. He has done some masterful work in other scales and this one should be a great addition. Just a few modifications and it can be converted to the Gunnison or Almont bridges. He is, in fact, making the kit where I can be extended in length for those wishing a longer bridge. His website at www.jpstructures.com.
Thanks again Bob;
Kenneth
