My train tracks "float" on my bridge, just like last year (figures, since the
bridge is the same). The bridge clears 11-stud wide trains, so it can
definitely float sideways a little too, if required.... plus the bridge "floats"
on the water too, so it can be moved around as well ...
I saw some cool bridges in Columbus, Indiana yesterday.... I'll take photos next
week, and barring unforeseen wireless issues at the Holiday Inn, post them
too... preview:
