Nice to see Network Rail working on Barmouth Viaduct. What a fantastic viaduct in such an incredible part of Wales.

Very interesting and some great drone shots. It’s a shame it won’t swing open again but I guess there wasn’t too many tall boats sailing up river?

@Rail_Focus 8 месяцев назад

Thanks. I can't see many people wanting to sail up the channel, it's not the easiest to navigate I don't think.

I think WIRRAL and LIVERPOOL could extend in the future and build a BRIDGE that would link both up or use a mono rail system off the ground so trams could be high off the ground a new link system which would support transport and more jobs part of the WIRRAL WATERS AND LIVERPOOL WATERS SYSTEM 👍👍👍

The new bridge is an amazing piece of engineering. However after refurbishment in the 1980s gave the original bridge an extension of life. However our usual lets watch the bridge fall apart maintenance policy on the railway, meant through the 90s to replacement no major work was done thus the job was a lot bigger in the end.
