Hi Keith,

The bridle rods are glued between the outside edges of the rail joiners, so in theory they should be clear.  In practice, one did have to be trimmed because the positioning wasn’t 100%.

(I have to run trucks through everything anyway because ME small spikes and code 55 rail are just *barely* compatible.  I got one of MicroMark’s HO-scale inspection cars and replaced the trucks with Blackstone HOn3 arch-bar trucks.  I might need to narrow the body of it a bit when it comes time to check scenery clearances.  I suspect it would work equally well with Sn3 trucks under it….)

Cheers,
Jeff.
