LMS Route: Nuneaton to Coventry

Albany Road Bridge: lnwrar1553b

Close up showing the original under occupation bridge and the new abutment built immediately behind

Close up of image 'lnwrar1553' showing the original under occupation bridge and the new abutment built immediately behind. The running rails can be seen already placed above the bridge despite the fact the earth needs to be replaced below the track at the back of the new bridge. The vertical tube is thought to be a mobile furnace which would be required to heat the rivets that would join the beams and cross-girders together.
