In need of a bridge...

Hi there!

I cannot seem to find an appropriate bridge on the DS for my route (I could simply be failing to search correctly, or one may not exist...). I'm looking for a bridge like this:

close-up of the deck:

The bridge is 12 25' spans for a total length of 300'. The center has double-pilings...

As a side note, a spline version as well would be fantastic. Curving is not going to be part of this route, but there are several bridges of various lengths all built just like this one, some with the double in the center, some without.

If anyone can point me to one like it, or if it does not exist and someone (bendorsey!) would be willing to create it, I would greatly appreciate it!

Thanks!
 
Dunno how exact you want to be, but a quick look in TS2010 built in stuff;

Plate Girder Bridge, bendy,<kuid2:124017:25029:1>
Bridge Pylon 1,<kuid:61119:38808>

Looks like this;

I had seen the girder bridge built-in but never the added pylons... That would satisfy my requirements, so long as I can find the pylons that look like the ones on the pictures, which are actually pilings. Thanks for the tip!

EDIT: It isn't too far off of the prototype, I may just settle for the solid pylons for now...

Your bridge is built. PM me your e-mail address and I'll send it to you for comments, changes, etc. It will be in 2004 format but should go into higher versions without changes (TS2010 in my case).
