I always assumed that the bridge scene was models. The expense, inability to have multiple takes and downright dangerous all come to mind...a train being wrecked does not always follow the script. The incredible shot of the derailed locomotive in The Train almost killed the camera crew,,,,nobody was expecting the shot to be that close up. What we know for sure is that there was no computer animations!
