How so? If your goal is to create a loop, the two pieces must be joined together.

You could lengthen the bridge (theoretically, the pieces might not fit that snug) with any combination of the pieces all the way down to the case of a reverse bridge connected at the bottom.
Unless they fit very snugly, I don't think anything would hold up the extra pieces in the middle, especially not well enough to support a train.
The original creator of this type of train track offers just such a support piece.[0] You can also 3D print your own supports![1]
