Lionel Trains Trestle Bridge Car No. 6825The Trestle Bridge Flat Car No. 6825 was available from 1959 until 1962. It has a WHITE heat-stamped serif "LIONEL" with the number on the sides of a RED molded flat car chassis. This car came with a No. 0110-18 Lionel bridge that was compatible with Lionel’s HO scale trains. This bridge is found in GRAY and BLACK colors, and was held in place by a No. 6418-9 elastic band. The bridge has also been produced in the Modern Era by MPC without the raised numbers "0110-18" on the underside of the bridge. Collectors should verify this number is present on the Post War version of this bridge.
