Kirkby Stephen station: bridge (2)
A view from the east side of the railway bridge also seen in NY7606 : Kirkby Stephen station: bridge over the A685. The height limit is given as 14ft 6in, and unusually these days not also given in Metric (4.42m).
At right, a passenger waits for a bus towards Kirkby Stephen town. The Midland railway inconveniently located its station over 2km from the town centre, as the line had to follow the ruling gradient uphill all the way from Carlisle to Ais Gill.
