Quote from: miniviews;123329470It appears news report is just for sensation

The bottom of the segment to the right of the column is several inches/centimeters lower than the one to the left, and the trackbed is so out of level that the noise barrier ended up as a parallelogram instead of a rectangle as on the adjacent and nearby segments. Even that wasn't enough to keep the width of the joint at the noise barrier from becoming visibly wider at the top. To me, this looks as fucked up as a football bat, even if there wasn't a crack. Can people seriously not see anything wrong here?

I'm no engineer, but as badly misfabricated as that segment was, it's no freaking wonder that it cracked.
