Congratulations - There appears to now be two LEGO arch bridges
in the world. :-) It looks good - a more "European" feel than mine.
I've managed to get enough beams to make a few of my bridges, but
I don't know if I'll be able to have one ready in time for Christmas
like I had hoped. I don't want to post photos till it's ready, but
imagine a much more intricate version of my monorail bridge...

I'm curious though what you've used to form the actual arch. I'm using
Technic beams and a "Technic" my AFOL brother and I came up with.
It appears to me that you're using something other than LEGO for the
arch in your bridge - can you elaborate on the construction?

| Looks like the arch is made from 4.5v curved rails, right Arne? I really like the look of it, very sturdy and even looking. Nice job. I'd have to argue with the "two" arch bridges though, I have a technic arch bridge that I made earlier this year. (...) (24 years ago, 8-Dec-00, to lugnet.trains)
