Budapest has two railway bridges over the Danube, both of them originally meant as temporary post-war structures, but not replaced properly to this day. One of them carries a busy with commuters but badly built out railway (single-track non-electrified, often three two-car DMUs for a train), of which it is the worst spot: speed reduction to 20 km/h. And for a decade, it was threatened, with demands that its pillars should be re-used in a bridge of a to-be-constructed fourth ring road.
Now it was at last announced that the replacement of the bridge is planned for 2008. It is 674.4 m long, budget is 68.4 million. *Lunatic*, n. One whose delusions are out of fashion.
On the plus side (if it ever gets built) the Wash metro area is extending light rail to Dulles Intl Airport. That will take years to build. I can swear there ain't no heaven but I pray there ain't no hell. _ Blood Sweat & Tears
