  MOC: Bridges for Trains
 
It took a while and some of the images didn't come out to quite the exposure I wanted them to, BUT, I finally got down to posting photos of some bridges I built the past several months. Just check out the recent in Brickshelf or (URL) try to post (...) (24 years ago, 1-Jan-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.trains)

(...) How'd you manage to accumulate so many beams? :-) That's been my primary problem since LEGO discontinued the beams parts pack. (I feel sorry for those with a slow connection - even with DSL I didn't wait for the full photos to load...) SRC (...) (24 years ago, 1-Jan-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.trains)

(...) I agree...the bridges look cool, but please reduce your pictures to a reasonable size, like somewhere between 640x480 and 1024x768. Thanks! --Bram Bram Lambrecht bram@cwru.edu (URL) (24 years ago, 1-Jan-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: MOC: Bridges for Trains
 
Sorry about that. I didn't realize what I had done untill I got finished loading all my images. I discovered you tend to get spoiled when you switch to a cable server, unfortunately, not everyone can enjoy it! I take some time tomorrow to reload (...)

  Re: MOC: Bridges for Trains
 
(...) Dude, you need to scale those pics way way down... and then repost them. I couldn't wait around for the first one to D/L. And remember, Kevin's bandwidth for brickshelf is being donated, let's not push our Loch, er, luck. The thumbnails look (...) (24 years ago, 2-Jan-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: MOC: Bridges for Trains
 
(...) ...Fantastic work! I'd love to see some details of the girder structure (like how the LEGO math worked out to for that height). That beast is beautiful tho (even at huge picture size (as others have pointed out :-) How did you work out the (...) (24 years ago, 2-Jan-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: MOC: Bridges for Trains
 
Adrian, Some very impressive pieces of engineering! The outside trusses and sheer scale must make it very exciting to follow a train across. Please, some shots of your curved bridges too. -BMW (...) (24 years ago, 2-Jan-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.trains)
 
  It's done! (was Re: MOC: Bridges for Trains)

I tried to keeep all the shots within 1024 range or less, but above 640x480, just for those who would like to see some detail. The elongated horizontal (...)

  Re: MOC: Bridges for Trains
 
Thanks to the digital camera, I'll have photos of the bridging used in my "Limacion" track layout up around Wednesday, and since the far end where the trains come around and make a u-turn (so to speak) you can see some photos of my curved design.
