bridge bearings
#2
I used the parts that came with the CV and ME girder kits. The ones from CV kit, once cut in half, were a very close match to the real ones on the Mason Park bridge. For the 69th Street bridge, the shoes really looked like nothing more than stacked up steel plates. The ME shoes matched fairly well, so I used them. The concrete bridges didn't have shoes, the concrete just set on the supports as far as I could tell.

Now that I think of it, some of the shoes may have been leftovers from a Walther's truss bridge. I also remember that I have a set of metal shoes, maybe those came in the ME bridge kit?

It shouldn't be too difficult to make some.
