  Sauroposeidon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Estimates of size are based on a comparison between the four Sauroposeidon vertebrae and the vertebrae of the HM SII specimen of Brachiosaurus brancai, located in the Humboldt Museum in Berlin.
The HM SII is the most complete brachiosaur known, though since it is composed of pieces from different individuals its proportions may not be totally accurate.
The mass of the Sauroposeidon is estimated at 50 to 60 metric tonnes (55 to 65 tons).

 BBC - h2g2 - Dinosaurs of The Isle of Wight - Sauropods
In 1991, remains of a Brachiosaur were discovered near Atherfield and Brighstone on the Isle of Wight by Steve Hutt.
Brachiosaurs can grow up to 25 metres long, and though this one appears to have been slightly over 15 metres, there are strong indications that it is a juvenile, due to unfused bones, and so may have reached a length of 23 metres when fully grown.
In 1975, a diplodocoid chevron was found near Grange Chine, as well as caudal vertebra, a metatarsal and teeth have been found that all appear to belong to a diplodocoid, but a smaller one than Diplodocus carnegii, which grew to 24 metres long.

 Science News : First brachiosaur tooth found in Asia.(South Korea)(Brief Article) @ HighBeam Research   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
A brachiosaur tooth found in South Korean sediments represents the first evidence that this huge, plant-eating dinosaur once roamed Asia, say the researchers who dug up the tooth.
Brachiosaur teeth are easy to recognize, explains Jong-Deock Lim, a paleontologist at the Natural History Museum at the University of Kansas in Lawrence.
The 3-centimeter-long brachiosaur tooth was found near Jingu, South Korea, along a dinosaur trackway.

 Brachiosaur diet   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
In the case of the brachiosaur, the meals would have been evergreen leaves or needles, presumeably.
Along the same lines, brachiosaur teeth do not reach all the way back to the coronoid, indeed a space is left there.
So brachios wouldn't have had to deep-throat each branch, but rather they could have come in from the side, allowing one end to enter the side of the jaw full of needles and exit between the spaces of the teeth at the front of the jaws, stripped of there greenery.

 Science News: First brachiosaur tooth found in Asia - South Korea - Brief Article
The size of the tooth and the amount of wear indicate the stray fossil came from an adult brachiosaur.
Brachiosaurs took advantage of their long necks to feed on conifers, tree ferns and other tall, tough vegetation.
The dinosaur that shed this tooth in the Korean peninsula was probably similar in size to African brachiosaurs--3 to 5 m tall at the shoulder and more than 25 m long.

 The Fabled Aussie Brachiosaur
No cervicals are known for Austrosaurus, so this bone could be from the same type of animal (if not the same species), although the similarity between this cervical and that of Brachiosaurus was thought to be greater than the similiarity between other skeletal elements of both species.
The presence of a large rib found in the opal fields of South Australia, similar to that of brachiosaurs, and two brachiosaur-like teeth from Lightning Ridge in New South Wales, was seen as further evidence of the animals in Australia.
At the time there were rumours that this was the fabled brachiosaur that had been mentioned years before.

Scientists examining a single neck bone found on the Isle of Wight by a local fossil hunter believe that it belongs to a brachiosaur, a type of sauropod.
Complete brachiosaur skeletons show that these sauropods had particularly long forelimbs, a short tail, and extremely long necks.
These dinosaurs were between 20 and 25 metres long and the Isle of Wight brachiosaur was probably similar in length, making it the largest dinosaur specimen identified in Europe.

Neera drew closer as Baylene, the brachiosaur, stood silently, her head bowed as if in deep contemplation.
Being the last brachiosaur meant no more to carry on; it was obvious that Baylene was well beyond her breeding prime.
Perhaps Baylene clearly accepted her fate and resigned herself to die along the way; if she was not meant to survive then she didn't voice it outright.

Set 65 million years ago, DINOSAUR tells the compelling story of an iguanodon named Aladar, who is separated from his own kind and raised by a clan of lemurs, including the wisecracking Zini and the compassionate Plio.
When a devastating meteor shower plunges their world into chaos, Aladar and his family follow a herd of dinosaurs heading for the safety of the "nesting grounds." Along the way, Aladar befriends Baylene, the dignified, elderly brachiosaur with a take-no-prisoners attitude; Eema, the unstoppable styrachosaur; and Neera, a feisty fellow iguanodon.
Together, they must stand strong amid food and water shortages, the threat of attacks by carnotaurs, and Aladar's run-ins with the herd's stubborn leader, Kron.

He said, 'That goes to that dorsal vertebrae.' No evidence of it, except that because the scapula was clearly brachiosaur, and because this dorsal vertebrae was named Ultrasaurus, which must be a brachiosaur, he referred it.
Dewey Ray, bless his heart, climbed up into these ungodly, unreachable areas of the collection and started throwing boxes down and ripping things open, and he found the transverse process in five hours.
