Ahhh - I missed the thin grey line of the monorail track - I see now
that it's not part of the bridge, just very close to it. The question
about ZNAP usage and utility in the bridge still stands, though :)
Also, this brings up another question - has anyone attempted to set a
record for a monorail bridge? It seems a shame to have such a large,
unsupported span of dual train track, only to put a monorail track with
stanchions right beside it :)
Thanks,
Jeff
