Waaaay OT: There's at least a couple of bridge inspectors...
here...perhaps retired? I traveled to the UK many times in the course of my work. I used to drive by this structure on every trip. I finally remembered that I wanted to post an image for your interest.
Having worked closely with English engineers, it is not really a surprise but, all I can say is, pictures do not convey the awful hideousness of the physical structure. It is massive, ungainly and makes a fella just say, "Huh?" More images and information can be found by Googling "Lyne Railway Bridge".
