This EPIC bridge is now fully decked out and it’s a massive 1.2m long and crosses the Studsburg LEGO City harbour. Two LEGO trains can run across it and I’ve completed everything above the deck including access for engineers and a walkway for Pedestrians. It’s great to have the train loop completed! In this video I’ll show you what’s been done and what’s coming next! I also want to hear your ideas on how it can be improved and also what stall to add to the walkway. Keep your eye out for some Sigfigs in the video too!
