That needs one of those fire engine cars.

Like those Trains in China. There is a picture of them in the cellar. Probably in this thread.

It's good to be a bricklayer.

The first structure is the Ouse Valley viaduct which carries the London to Brighton railway line.

We can't lay claim to the second example as it appears to be the Göltzsch Viaduct in Germany.

Railroads and bricks. Beautiful.

There are many amazing things in the two links.
Two top ones are "The Göltzsch Viaduct was an extraordinarily large endeavor for its time. Each day, the nearly 20 brickyards along the railway line would produce 50,000 bricks ..."
And for the London-Brighton line "a decision to limit gradients along the line to 1 in 264."

Nice! Reminds me of a viaduct you go under when driving from Lake Alden PA to Binghamton NY. In the middle of nowhere, you come across this magnificent structure running literally through people's back yards.
