Item Description
 
Part #: BLMA-2000 Single Track Truss Bridge SILVER - 150' (Brass)
The Prototype
Located on the Union Pacific mainline in Southern California, the prototype for this model dates back to 1938.  Spanning a narrow section of the Mojave River that runs above ground, the massive 150-foot long bridge is an important link in Union Pacific's LA&SL line that links Los Angeles, Salt Lake, and points further east.  
Afton Canyon, home of this truss bridge, is located between Los Angeles and Las Vegas on the LA&SL line as mentioned above.  Near such railfan hot spots as Cajon Pass and Tehachapi Loop, Afton Canyon offers an unbelievable backdrop for Southern Californian rail fanning.  If you're planning a rail fanning trip in Southern California, don't miss this spot (be advised that train traffic is sporadic at best, and exploring the canyon requires 4 wheel drive, a full tank of gas, water, and at least a full morning or afternoon).
The Model
Due to the demand of modelers all over the world, we are proud to announce this stunning bridge as our first completely assembled brass model.  Painstakingly recreated by hand, this model will feature extremely accurate dimensions, rivet detail, and more!  Each model takes between 25-30 hours to assemble! Spanning a solid 150 scale feet, the scale model length is: N Scale:  11.27”

Item Description  

Stock Checks:

Inventory is a fluid commodity.  It changes by the hour (sometimes by the minute). To retain our pricing structure we maintain stock levels designed to turnover 6 times each year. We cannot guarantee stock status till we have an order in hand. All product is subject to prior sale. If we confirm that we have it, and, while we are waiting for the order it sells, you would be upset that we did not hold it.
We used to hold items but learned a VERY EXPENSIVE lesson. When we held items for customers’ orders, the order never materialized 80%+ of the time.  We lost out on the orders placed while the item was on hold.  Also we wasted staff time that could have been used to pull actual orders.
Since we are well known for finding older stock the fact that it may not be on our shelves at this minute does not mean we can’t get it. So, as we spell out on our terms pages, we don’t do it anymore.
You may, however, call in and we will tell you if the items are available and if possible attempt to locate what we don’t have while you are on the phone.
