Technical data
Description
The NEM-compliant, double-track N gauge bridge is 272 mm long and sufficiently stable for N gauge vehicles. The span across the water is 165 mm. The bridge abutments are included in the kit. An extension is available as an option (item number MU_N-L00547).
Prototype: The Oberhafen Bridge is a combined railway and road bridge. The railway crosses the canal on the upper section via a double-track line; below is the road with pedestrian walkways and access from both sides.
Wikipedia entry for the model:
The Oberhafenbrücke is a combined railway and road bridge in Hamburg. The lower level is reserved for road traffic, while the upper level carries all rail traffic crossing the Elbe (with the exception of the S-Bahn) between Hamburg Central Station and Hamburg-Harburg Station on four tracks.
The bridge was built as a truss bridge starting in May 1902 and completed in May 1904. It leads to the Oberhafen district and crosses the Oberhafen, a waterway connecting the Norderelbe (Northern Elbe) just beyond Rothenburgsort and the Zollkanal (Customs Canal). It was replaced with a new structure in 2007.
