I need to get 2 tracks through a tight clearance (6" hole in a concrete wall)...
Initially I had planned to just run double track through the wall... but on each side of the wall, the track is actually 2 single track mains at 2 levels.
... To avoid a ramp up and ramp down, I'd like to try to and get both tracks through without changing grade, which would likely mean one directly over the other.
.. I'm going to use Unitrak in this section, and I need to be able to clear double stacks on both tracks.

If anyone has these on hand...

Could someone please pull the following measurements on these items?
Single Track Truss Bridge: Kato 20-430 (or 431-434)
Bottom of Bridge (without footing) to top of rail:
Bottom of Bridge (without footing) to top of bridge:

Double Track Pre-Cast Pier Set: Kato 23-020
Height to top of pier:
Clearance height under pier (if I removed the mid-way support)..
(The kit says 2" but not sure what they mean by 2")

Thanks all ~Ian
