Also, Bob Kojima’s big Technic bridge was a hit. It was fun to watch it boing
up and down when Dave VinZant’s massive TGV roared over it. I was thinking
about taking bets on how long until it gave way and crashed into Frank Filz’
coastal scene underneath. But it held.

Yup, friday night i woke up from a nightmare that included the bridge, dave’s
tgv, and franks coast seen there was carnage and broken pieces everywhere.
i was so nervous the first time any trains went over the bridge. i was afraid
the nightmare would come true. but it held up. guess i built it strong enough.
