    I just downloaded it to let my wife play it.

    Maybe she will get hooked on it and I can get some work done

      Man, 11 is brutal! I can't figure it out. I have tried a gazillion things. Nothing works so far.

          Hi Dilitante1
          The trick is to have struts forming a counterweight (on the anchor side), so that when there's no train on the bridge, the bridge points up towards the sky! The weight should be only so much so that the train balances it when it's at the other end of the bridge, thus managing to cross to the other side (coz the bridge is now horizontal)!!
          Cheers

            Hi Dave
            Yup, the 11th level was really tough!! You might want to check out the tips on the game's site. The basic method is to use triangular strut arrangement only, and then arrange them so that they form an arch, going from the bottom, over the bridge and then back down!!
            Cheers

              The train can actually jump, too. I used a little ramp system to get by one of the levels. The train can actually get some air and only one car has to cross to the other side to pass the level.

                The passengers are not gonna like that.
                Someday, we'll look back on this, laugh nervously and change the subject.

                    You don't have to lose anyone, our clumsy design worked just fine and saved the entire train. On the site there were "cleaner" designs that do basicly the same thing, but I didn't see 'em until after I beat the game.



                    And if you're lazy, this works great for map 11...
