Not new to scratch building but am new to N Scale scratch building, especially when it comes to scale sizes for materials.
Here is my plan - I intend to build a series of "Overhead Walkways" and am looking at Pastruct ABS products to do that. The support for the walkways will be "I Beams" and that is where I run into problems.
What size "I Beams" should I use to maintain some resemblance of scale? My initial thought is to use 1/16th sized beams. Will that size be suitable?

And ... what would you use for the railings as depicted in the same picture?
Any help/advice will be greatly appreciated.
