NY6753 : Railway bridge over the South Tyne Railway

near to Knarsdale, Northumberland, Great Britain

Railway bridge over the South Tyne Railway

Bridge over a disused stretch of the South Tyne Railway, now the South Tyne Trail.
This line is unusual by the fact that from 1840 to 1976 it was standard gauge. In 1976 the re-laying of the line commenced as narrow gauge, starting at Alston. An ongoing project is in place which should hopefully see a section of the line eventually extended as far as Slaggyford.
