I have no idea which category this post should go in, so the moderators are welcome to put it wherever they wish.
Anyone for a recycled flatcar bridge that's a little fancier than most? Here's one at 63N 32E in Russia. Reused flatcars are common in parts of the western US, but I've never seen a bridge quite like this. It appears to be two lanes wide, so two flatcars wide, where most of the ones I've seen are single lane, single span bridges over smaller creeks.

Just north of Las Vegas, out by the Apex exit, there are a series of flat cars being used as bridges for the UP's service road next to the main line. Why can I not find the pics right now?
