Dear Wayne,
thanks for posting this interesting informations about your bridge. In fact
I was highly interested to get to know more abaout it.
So far it was my bridge to hold the record (and from purists view it still
might be).
If you don't know what I'm talking about, take a look here:

I will try to get the record back, but I fear that has to wait till southern
Germanys train meeting in 2001. Be prepared for a 100% pure Lego bridge with a
lenght of at least 60 sections (8 meters) of straight track!
But for the moment the record is yours.
Congrats and "Leg Godt!"
Ben
