Crossings

An unidentified Class 47 slips across the King Edward Bridge over the River Tyne working the 11:25 Newcastle to Liverpool service on 12th July 1984. In the foreground the spans of the old Redheugh Bridge are being dismantled for scrap whilst behind the foundations are still in-situ and a Northern Leyland Atlantean crosses the new Redheugh Bridge as it heads towards the Gateshead area.
