In my recent LEGO City updates, I highlighted that I was setting the city up to have two LEGO Train lines running. But, one vital bit of the infrastructure I have was not big enough to handle this change. Namely my bridge (modified LEGO Spider-Man: Web Warriors Ultimate Bridge Battle 760570. It needed to be longer and a lot wider. In part 1 I’ve started the work to complete the train loop.
