This is the Ouseburn viaduct. Cannot see much of it as it is having a £10 million
of work to clean it up and strengthen it.
It is named The Ouseburn Viaduct, length 918ft, width 50ft. Constructed 1839
using laminated timber, hence the design, replaced 1869 by five wrought iron arches,
and widened to three tracks.
This is what is on top, three railway tracks, gantrys supporting overhead electric cables
of the East Coast Railway line.
Close by there are three posts supporting the cables, but further away there is just one post
in the middle, hence the more complicated horizontal gantrys.
