Hi,

I'm looking for a couple of Ideal bridges. They are 14" long, black plastic, they have an aluminum or plastic track bed where the track goes and they have a red pea light on the top. They were produced in 1957.

Just wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction. I found a couple on eBay, but need two more to complete my plan. I have a photo, but I don't know how to attach it.

Any help will be appreciated!

Thanks,
Mark

Figured out how to add photos...

THIS is what I'm looking for! It has a red pea light bulb on the top and either aluminum or plastic track base. 14" long.

I've learned that Gilbert later made this bridge for American Flyer, but it didn't come with the aluminum girder trackbed. It came in both built-up and kit forms.

Ideal also sold the aluminum girder separately.

Anybody have one (or TWO!) that they want to sell?

Thanks,
Mark
