Chooch Enterprises

Need some help here.  :|

I cannot seem to find any Double track cut stone bridge piers listed with Chooch, although they do
list a Double track cut stone bridge abutment. I may be imagining it but I thought that they had one
at one time. I also checked Walthers but I am having no luck in finding a Double track cut stone bridge pier
made by anyone.

Anyone have any suggestions???  :? :?

Build a single track bridge with a gauntlet track running over the bridge arrangement.  :trollface:

In reality, it would make for some very interesting operating possibilities.

Two single-track piers spliced together?  Cut one end off each, glue the cut sides together, and carve any lines needed to disguise the seam.

A similar option, but cutting lengthwise, would be two abutments back-to-back.

Or, you could cast a plaster block, and carve the stones into it.  If you already have the plaster, a simple box would do for the mold, as you can carve the abutment to whatever shape you wish, and the cost would be minimal.  Don't like the results?  Throw it out, all you wasted was a few cents worth of plaster and some time.

Yeah I'm able to make my own but I would like too find out if one is already made by someone.

Yours certainly looks nicer than most commercial ones I've seen!
