The Forth Rail Bridge is one of the world's great engineering
feats, and one of its most well-known. When it opened in 1890, the
cantilevered bridge had one of the world's longest spans, at 541
metres. Its distinctive and innovative design marks it as an
important milestone in bridge construction during the period when
railways came to dominate long-distance land travel. Spanning the
estuary of one of the country's great rivers, the Forth Bridge
revolutionised travel within Scotland, and it continues to carry
and freight more than 130 years after its official opening. This
view of the Forth Rail Bridge features the Gresley A4 Class Pacific
Plover locomotive and was painted by Terence Cuneo (1907-1996) for
British Railways in 1952. Cuneo withstood gales of over 50 mph as
he sketched the scene from a girder above the track.
