Wow, nice!

I wish a lot of real railroad bridges looked that good! 

You should find  a copy of the April 2021 "Railpace" magazine, I call it "The Big Crappy Bridge" issue!  They ain't fallin' down, but they don't look so good either!

Nice, careful work.  I might add, however, that in a real bridge, the diagonal members would go in opposite directions from the center of the bridge to each end.  From the center, if the members in each panel go from top to bottom aiming toward the end of the bridge, they are compression members.  If they go from bottom to top aiming toward the end of the bridge, they are tension members.
