Fully optimized. No wall is thinner than 0,3mm Design: Construction based on real bridge. Adjusted for coal unloading - removed side girders and added skids. Model is optimized for Tillig's G1 straight track with wooden sleepers. But you can use flat variant and put there any track you want. Options: all combinations of components provided. 02_ variant is without skids, mainly for dioramas and static scenes. 04_ variant is functional with skids. 00_ are common components for both variants. You can print it as whole if it fits in your printer, or print each part individually. Follow the blueprint for assembly Function: while moving coal train over the bridge, special skids open side flaps of wagons, letting coal load fall under the bridge Operation: roll your train really slowly over the bridge. If your Falls derails during unloading, your side flap's hinges are not bent enough and don't allow flap to fully open. You can fix this by gently pushing on hinges with screw driver, to bend them more upward. Video: https://youtu.be/beOW9pCTchM
