Re: [Talk-GB] Road/Rail Bridge near Preston Park
As an aside, the bridge just further east https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/48132275 now has a cut-out 'ghost train' that is lit up at night.

Re: [Talk-GB] Road/Rail Bridge near Preston Park
Known locally as "Pigeon Shit Bridge". I'll let you guess why for yourselves. Needless to say, one doesn't hang around when walking under it. Although I can see the gap between the service road https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/633094942 and the first line https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/236002689 in general I would regard it as a single very wide bridge carrying 12 lines and the service road, with the gap being an anomaly.

[Talk-GB] Road/Rail Bridge near Preston Park
Hi https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=19/50.83309/-0.14321 shows New England Road and Old Shoreham Road Brighton. The standard OSM render shows 12 rail lines bridged over the roads, could be read as there being 12 bridges. Looking at aerials in JOSM looks like those 12 rail lines cross over using one bridge or perhaps even the road in a tunnel. Mapillary detail not available, so in Google Street View there appears to be 3 bridges, an arched bridge at the east end with a light gap between it and the next bridge. This 2nd bridge is joined to the 3rd bridge with no light gap, the west most of the three bridges has support pillars, the central bridge doesn't. Mapping this I think should be done as three bridges/areas using man_made=bridge with the railway as layer 1. But what are the other features to identify the arched and the bridge with support columns. Thoughts on these railway bridges which are very common?
