Nice shots !!!
Hey, you know the Pepsi Max ;) Sadly, there was no vending machine at the top.
Access was fairly straightforward - jump fence, dodge security patrols

The Fourth was similar, but there's a hitch: because the bridge is under constant repair, 5 minutes after the last train has rolled through, the workers [who live below] come up and begin works, which last all night.

So essentially, you've got a window from around sunset until 11:30 or so. As you may know if you've rolled through there a few times, the run-up onto the bridge is rather long. We learnt that you can't trust the timetimes - on the run-on, and the run-off, we had trains hammering down on us. The climb is most exhilarating, and the view isn't that bad either. If you're ever board and out that way....
