There is probably enough room under the first bridge to have a triple decker container car!

The second bridge looks okay. Looks to be about a standard 14 foot height that 13' 6" trucks can clear, in HO scale of course. Now if the second bridge was over an interstate, tollway, or a divided highway, it would need to be at least 14' 10" in some states. In my town we have a 12' 6" bridge over a two lane state route that some idiot trucks driver decide they can go under with their 13' 6" trucks, just about two trucks claimed in a month. :P

Dave;

Thanks for the photos of your Freemo set up. Looks like you guys had a great time. Great looking modules too!
I hope you make it to NTS in Sacramento. Northern California Freemo is hosting the set up. We have will have Canada and US modules....plus our signal system will be up and operating. It should be fun!!

Regards

Thanks Jere I would love to make it out...................I am in the process of relocating back to Colorado from Texas. Hopefully I will get a chance to come out to California at some point for a visit.
