As to bridge or elevated structures, I try not to use girders but instead to use open trusses because girders block views and trusses are open. I like to see the trains moving beyond the truss-shapes.
Here is a 5-track truss bascule.
Glad to hear I'm not alone in designing twice and re-printing many. LOL The software is unbelievably powerful and can do anything you want it to do, however that is where I have issues, most times I don't know what I want! At any rate, your bridge is spectacular, and there is an inherent beauty in your design philosophy of using open trusses vs girders. Your work is just spectacular for sure!
