[16.3] Game crashes during sprite loading

[Sinjid]

I currently have my steam set to keep the game updated to the most recent experimental release. The game was running perfectly fine yesterday (Dec 14), however when I attempted to run the game today, it crashed. I have attempted running the game multiple times and it consistently crashes when 89% loaded. The only mod I currently have enabled is the Beautiful Bridge Railway mod. I had disabled all others yesterday, as they were marked incompatible with that version of factorio.

Aside: Thank you devs for your hard work and dedication, I look forward to playing

EDIT: I tried removing beautiful bridge railways from the mod folder and the game still crashes at 89%
