Bridges

[Biggles]

Recon the new bridge is near Mundubbera.

Right part of Queensland, wrong town.

Got lost back there somewhere between the Sydney Harbour Bridge, somewhere near Mundubbera and some washed away bridges.......  Can someone can get us back on track with some localities?

While we are waiting, here is a pic of one of my favourite Bridges:

If that's on track I'm certainly lost in here.   

To resolve the bridge question, here's my next clue:  Burnett River.

OK brains trust, here's a challenge.  Where's this one?   (Hint:  Victoria)

Bridges is the thread topic.  So (IMHO), it wasn't too far of topic. 

I suppose this raises a few questions, ie:
Who is allowed to hijack a thread?
When is hijacking acceptable?
Are these questions another hijack?

More info required for me.

No one and anyone.

When is hijacking acceptable?

Never or sometimes.

Are these questions another hijack?

Most definitely!

Will I head up stream or down stream along the Murray River?

Victoria, but not on the River Murray.  It's on a popular bike run, but photographed from an unusual angle.

Mitchell River at Bairnsdale?

Got it!   We've stopped at the park below the bridge for lunch on a number of occasions.

Been asleep for a while.

Here's another bridge:

And another one:


Opened in 1862, so 230,000 pounds, 120' feet high, 828 feet long, still used daily .... where is it?

[Brock]

where is i?

Just because you misplaced it, doesnt mean that one of us took it...

[Biggles]

Looks like they had to add some scaffolding to reinforce it.

Let us know if it turns up.

.... the increase in rail traffic ... heavier railway rolling stock it was deemed necessary to strengthen the structure.  In 1933-34 the fabricated steel columns were added.

Another bridge, similar style, construction and reinforcing as the Taradale bridge:

I've still got a few beers left, I'll keep one for the person that correctly nominates the location.
