Hi, Chris,

My biggest concern was not the "high bridge" but the smaller ones (plate girder above Devil's Gate) and the "Pin Truss" bridge above the mine stop. As much as their strength, I am concerned about #1203 being able to fit, as they are both on curves and clearance was already tight with our GTL power.
