The Uintah Railway had lots of bridges , over 100 in a 60 odd mile line , but most of these were insignificant creatures , many less than 16 feet in length. However, if they had built the projected extension to Bonanza that had been mooted in 1921, they would have had to add about 2 dozen more and some of these were very large , over 500 foot in length and 150 feet high.
I created the proposed extension and found that i could get a LOT of bridges in one single shot as the line loops back several times around itself . I'm posting a few here , see if you can count them correctly. A hint , the last shot has the most .
it would be nice to have examples of how many others have on their route, do we even have a bridge thread? if we do then perhaps this can be a variation of that and if not, just post your bridges here for fun !
this ones easy
this one might be considered a trick shot .....
Even i'm not completely sure how many there are in this shot , there may be a little one lurking in the far distance that's lost in the detail from this distance.
No animals were harmed in the making of these bridges ,or the route , although my old dog ( who was losing her sight but liked the heat emanating from the computer ) ,used to crawl under the desk on occasions and rummage around near cables so it was a close thing.
