One more then, the steel giant is a 4-lane road bridge over the River Mersey alongside a much older brick-pier and cast iron structure carrying 2 rail tracks. The entrance towers at either end are quite something though

That's the Firth of Forth bridge, right? What have they done to decrease the painting frequency?
All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
Zinc-based primer, glass-flake epoxy over that and polyurethane gloss to finish in red oxide colour.
What's gone south with their loco, Hugh? Are they watching the points of that turn-out or is it stopped?
Photoshoot? Don't know, the picture is at least pre WWII with a standard train of the era.
