Cantilever bridges of that size are not very common. Until recently, the
Quebec Bridge was considered one of the wonders of the World (it fell
twice while it was being built). Actually I can't recall seeing any
other large bridges of the kind.


The Forth Railway Bridge in Scotland is a good example. That has been
there for years. Other kinds of bridge are now much more economical for
large spans. Is that bridge there in FS2004? It crosses the Firth of
Forth about 5 miles west of Edinburgh. There is also a newer suspension
road bridge next to it and they should both be there.
