Collosal hack

This collosal hack (all parts red) are holding up the Amsterdam Centraal train station roof (grey parts). For some reason they needed to rest the weight of that roof pillar a meter to either side of where it used to rest.

They are currently working hard to construct a subway underneath the train station... which resets on some 11,000 pylons that are drilled into the river (Het Ij). The dutch are crazy -- I *love* them!
