Railroad Structures
Most structure models on the EPRR are built to approximately 1:8th scale; however adjustments are made to also accommodate the fact that 1:1 scale people ride the 1:8 scale trains.
Some industrial structures are very large however, most are modeled to simply represent an industry location for the railroad to service. Several of the industries along the railroad produce products consumed by other industries also on the railroad, so during card order operations there is more purpose in car movements, such as moving a grain hopper to a silo to be filled with barley and then moving it to the brewery to be unloaded.
Trestles and bridges are as much a part of railroad structures as are line-side shacks. Safety concerns however prevent building these to 1:8 scale where you usually provide walk-boards for people in the event of an emergency and the need to support thousands of pounds of trains elevated several feet off the ground.
