Ben(ny) Efde and Marco (from Leeuwarden/NL) have done a new record of a
(100% pure) Lego®-train bridge which they have presented at their train • show
in
Leeuwarden last weekend.

That's pretty big... is the 5.15m measurement the span?  That is, is it
measured from inside the footings?

Also, what are the black "cables" made from- Technic parts?  Lego • strings?
I didn't see any pics close enough to tell.

In any case, I'll pass this along to Wayne Hussey... he built a bridge • with
an 18 foot (or so) span, though it did use non-Lego strings for cables.

Also used non-lego weights in the base.

Damn, I can't get to Brickshelf - I'll have to check the pics later 8?(

But for a totally 100% pure Lego bridge, just check here:
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=3057 8?) Span is 3.6m • (about
11'10"). Should be complete by Christmas.

It is pure lego but the span is not that wide.

Not my MOC

ROSCO (real men build arch bridges!)
