The old Southern main line between Plymouth
and London. Looking towards London, this is now the
Gunnislake Branch after the tracks were lifted beyond
Bere Alston. Also vi sable is the Tamar Bridge. This
photograph is taken from one of the Approach Spans on
the Royal Albert Bridge itself.
Sunset over the Tamar Valley with The
Royal Albert Bridge glinting in the sun... This photograph
is taken from Royal Albert Bridge Signal Box now Network
Rail's Plymouth Mobile Operations Managers office.
The Union Inn, this photograph illustrates
how the area beneath The Royal Albert Bridge on the
Saltash side of the River Tamar has been completely
obliterated Careful research will be necessary to piece
together what the previous structures looked like.
Taken from track level, the 15mph speed
sign is a painful restriction caused by the the curvature
of the approach spans. The Union Inn certainly stands
out with the huge Union Jack frontage!
