Today I wired the bridge. I pulled the rail off some code 83 flex , bent it to shape, soldered a lead to it , and glued it down with some super glue CA. Walthers supplies you with a set of code 83 switch points that fit on the bridge, one set of rails have to be notched to except them.
Here you can see the splice for both sets of rail and the hold down pins .
I left the rail on the layout side of the bridge a little long so that I could cut them into the switch that is mounted off the bridge.I have to look and see if I can find some realy thin wood to make a new deck, I realy don't like the plastic one on the kit.
