Of course the true fun with this game is to think outside of the box.  Some
of the "best" bridges in our engineering group here were either wildly
deformable, had certain non-linearities to their behaviour (like columns
which started dangling in the air and then contacted the ground as the train
moved) or even jumping trains.

getting wild designs happening is good, but the problem is that
flexibility and deformation can be the killers. I certainly wouldn't
be a passenger on my train! One wild ride :)

Have you had a look at the world records on the homepage? Some very
impressive designs!
