Suspension bridge Model
| Description: |
Using a little imagination, an unknown railroad hobbyist made this bridge using Carlisle & Finch track between 1900 and 1945. Similar to the company’s No. 57 cast iron bridge, this bridge uses track, wood, electrical wire and paint. The company also sold extra wheels and motors for customers wishing to change their trains. The Carlisle & Finch Company produced the first American electric train in 1896. |
