Well considering that train bridges are currently the prime focus of
StRuCtures, it's a natural for NALug to showcase them. The simple
monorail one at the show last week was a basic concept test - larger
and more elaborate ones are on the way. I just have to make sure I get
an accurate measure of the distance between tables... :-) (Inside joke.)
A minor expansion of the mountain/tunnel wouldn't need Technic beams,
but if you want to make a wholesale change to something double or
triple or more the size, John and James would be the right guys IMO.
