43097 comes off the Royal Albert Bridge on 26 September 1993 with the 1S35 11:00 Penzance to Edinburgh 'Cornishman'. Unfortunately from this angle Brunel's 1859 masterpiece is somewhat overshadowed by the adjacent 1961 Tamar Bridge. Whilst everybody knows that Isambard Kingdom Brunel designed the rail crossing of the River Tamar, I expect few people know that the civil engineering company of Mott, Hay & Anderson were responsible for the road crossing. |
