How Good Is Your Geographic? [5]

[steveaki13]

Anfield was quite close, but not quite within 50, but it was close enough

Anyway I am sure I have read this recently.

I want to say about 1,750?

[schmenke]

I'm confused . What question are we on?

[Storm]

Bridges on the Trans-Siberian line.

Don't need to too exact, to the nearest 100 will do fine!

[D-Type]

To avoid confusion I'll repeat my guess of 10,000 bridges crossed by the trans-Siberian Railway.

Sorry D. I must have missed your guess amoungst the other erm confusion.

10,000 is a wee bit too high.

Really! the railway is 9,289 km (5,772 mi) long and that's approximately 1 bridge per kilometre. Or is the statistic you have only for major bridges?

The info I have simply states that there are ---- bridges on the Trans-Siberian railway.

Here is a direct quote from the info site I use (with the number crossed out )

Trans-Siberian railway crosses exactly ???? bridges

I think the problem arises where the railway divides off into 3 different routes
*Moscow-Vladivostok *Moscow-Ulaanbataar *Moscow-Beijing

My source was answering for the Vladivostok route alone

So if you take all three routes into account the answer would be close to 10 000

[Storm]

what happened here?

[edv]

Howzabout 6500 bridges?
