HELLO ALL, I AM LOOKING FOR A DUAL TRACK BRIDGE FOR MY LAYOUT. I WANTED TO PURCHASE THE ONE FROM MENARDS BUT ITS NO LONGER AVAILABLE. MENARDS BRIDGE IS PERFECT WHAT I NEED. I NEED TO LAY THE TRACK RIGHT ON THE BRIDGE. THE BRIDGE WILL BE GOING DIRECTLY ON MY LAYOUT, SO I CAN'T USE ANYTHING THAT NEEDS SOME SORT OF ELEVATION.
DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THE ONE FROM MTH WILL WORK? ANY OTHER RECOMMENDATIONS PLEASE LET ME KNOW.
THANKS, DAN

I have 3 of MTH bridges that I use to move from one table to another or over an opening that use to be where I stood to control the transformers. They work great. Also I know Atlas and Lionel both had bridges very similar.
For the MTH Bridges I just didn't use the piers they came with since they were going on FLAT territory.

I use the MTH bridge also. They are plentiful on the market.

If you are actually in the DC area, Star Hobby in Annapolis has two MTH double track bridges in stock.

Depending how big you want, the Lionel standard Gauge Hell Gate bridge will also handle dual O gauge tracks. That is what I'm using on my O gauge portion of my layout.

Thanks for the replies. Maybe ill go with the MTH bridge. It's hard to find online. No one has it. I even called Charles Ro in MA. They are out of it. The guy i spoke to said they are having supply issues with MTH.
Runamuckchuck- do you know if the store in Annapolis does mail order? I'm up in NY. Its way out of my way. Do you have their number?
