I have been building myself a bridge using aluminium sections supplied MVL Bridges.  It's almost finished and this week I'm hoping to fix the long flat bars that carry the track.  If anyone has one of Michaels bridges, could you please tell me, how did you fix the track to the long flat aluminium bars?

I have a lot of catching up to do on the forum! I hope a late response may still be useful. The attached photo shows how the deck is attached on the GME (and other) truss bridges where waybeams aren't used. It's simple and works well. The plate girders use a similar method with the cleats arranged longitudinally.
