- "Blondin Bridge is falling down!"
- ― A workman, Blue Mountain Mystery
Blondin Bridge is a bridge above the Blue Mountain Quarry that collapsed whilst Rheneas was travelling over it. Paxton had to be repaired as a result of bricks landing on and damaging him. It was repaired by the end of Blue Mountain Mystery.

Trivia
- Blondin Bridge received its name due to the fact that it spans over an aerial ropeway system which carries slate, known as a "blondin", which was in turn named after the French tightrope walker Charles Blondin. It is also a pun on the nursery rhyme "London Bridge is Falling Down".
- Capsule Plarail is repainted from Old Quarry Bridge.
