The railway that isn't there... by Ron Evers

...the remains of the Forth Bridge as it was affectionately called - the largest bridge on the line over the Stank beck. This was 40' in length and was a four-span structure. It really was quite a hair-raising experience crossing this bridge as the coach overhung the 18" gauge by about 2' each side and the water level was 12' below the level of the track! There still remain the concrete piers, the main-line rails which formed the bridge and a single forlorn 18" gauge sleeper bolted to these rails.
