Here's my AOTW offering:
4 Tyco Remote Control Uncoupling Track accessories. I didn't even know that these even existed, until I was lucky enough to win all 4 of these along with another Tyco "Over & Under Bridge" set for under $20 on Ebay.

My two Atlas Truss bridges placed side by side. I am wondering if they will look OK IF I placed them on my layout as pictured, only neatly glued together...?

Walt this is what they would look like . You don't have to glue them together. I put a nail at each end of the bridge. http://www.tycoforums.com/tyco/forum/uploaded/yardmaster54/20180522210413_20180520_141309.jpg

Thank You, Mike... I just didn't know if they would look unrealistic being side by side...

Actually Walt, on the Ohio central railroad that runs thru Newark there are a set of double truss bridges in Newark.

Well, thank You, Mike! I never have seen the truss bridges there. However I really enjoy the tracks that run along route 13 ...

The bridges are hard to see unless you know where to look. The tracks that follow 13 use to go to Mansfield. But now they end in Mt Vernon.
