The Akashi Kaikyo Bridge: http://www.kippo.or.jp/culture/gendai/global/bri_e.htm
Technology that bridges our dreams.
The Akashi Kaikyo Bridge, approximately 3,910 meters long, linking Honshu, Japan's main island, with Awaji Island, is the longest suspension bridge in the world. The foundations were constructed in sea channels flowing at 4 meters per second and 110 meters deep at the deepest point. The main towers are 300 meters tall with cables one meter in diameter suspending bridge girders as heavy as 90,000 tons. The bridge's construction represents the culmination of modern civil engineering technologies. The center span is 1,991 meters long and the base anchorage, which the cables are fastened to, weighs 350,000 tons. The total length of cable used was 300,000 kilometers. These record figures are a result of exceptional technological progress. The impressively wind-resistant and earthquake-resistant* design, plus its majestic appearance, make the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge one of the 20th century's finest achievements in bridge technology. The traffic and interest that the bridge will bring to the Kansai region is sure to affect the future of Japan and the world.

TVG Atlantique 308
The TGV Atlantique fleet was introduced in 1989 for service between Paris and western France, hence the name Atlantique and the ocean blue color. These trainsets were the first to run in everyday service at 300 km/h (186 mph), which is now the service speed on almost the entire French high speed network. The Atlantique trainsets have 10 trailers instead of 8 for other types of TGV trainsets, and were the first equipped with microprocessor-controlled AC traction equipment.
The Train Simulator Speedworks reproduction of TGV Atlantique trainset 308 shows the trainset as it was in the late 1990's, with the original TGV logo and the then-new SNCF "red hat" logo. In 1989 and 1990, trainset 308 was used to support the world speed record runs of trainset 325, also included in TGV Pack 1. 308 performed track sweeps to clear the way for 325, and towed 325 to and from the testing area. During one test, 308 and 325 passed each other at a closing velocity of 777 km/h (483 mph), another world record.
