Title
L2889 - Contractor's line and girder bridge near Aylestone
Description
L2889 - A completed girder overbridge spans two lines of contractor's railway near Aylestone, Leicester. Note the Midland Railway's wagon, and the steep climb for the temporary tracks as they head up out of the cutting beyond the bridge. Before the line was completed, these rails would have been lifted and the cutting slope returned to a smooth bank of earth.
