BLMA Models Brass Bridges Released!

Our N Scale brass bridges are now in stock and shipping to dealers!

As a little side note to my friends here on the 'wire, here are a few pictures of interest regarding the bridges.

Both Silver & Black together at last!  Just like PB&J...


Here we compare the prototype to the model -


Finally, these bridges were designed for accuracy and scale fidelity.  While we're not offering these in kit form, we figure anyone can appreciate the remarkable nature of this brass model.  Each model takes 25-30 hours to assemble!  You must see these models in person to really appreciate the attention to detail.


We'll have new announcements at the National Train Show in two weeks!  Stay tuned!

Craig, those look awesome.  I saw the pre-production sample in person and was blown away.  These will be hot sellers!

Very nice Craig! When the money starts flowing again, one or two of them (in HO) will be on my list.
Very well done!

I got mine in yesterday. They are wonderful. The pictures do not do them justice.

A silver one and a black one together - I can just feel the Feng shui of it!

Those look great Craig! After I had got off the phone with you and by the time I got to Chuck's this weekend, he'd already sold out. Still can't wait to see em in person.
