Hi Butch,
The CV HO bridge is tight, even for large HO steamers – the one on Jack
Parker’s layout (owner of Central Valley) would not pass an HO ATSF 4-8-4. It
is also a bear to build – as a friend of mine said,”Great kit. I will never
build another.” If you plan to use it with Sn3,, then it is OK, but it will
no way handle standard gauge. It is also fairly short, relatively. I would
take a look at (and for) some of the bridges done by Atlas, K-Line and Lionel
for O. It’s easier to narrow than to widen... Span also makes a difference
as to the most appropriate choice to modify. The CV parts are available as
separate items if you want to scratch a bridge up from parts...
Good luck!

Thanks Mike! I hadn't thought about the Central Valley bridge kit. It's sure to
be better detailed
