Im Hamburger Containerterminal Altenwerder beginnt die Nachtschicht und die One Hammersmith (length 336m/buildt 2009) wird fleißig beladen.
The night shift begins in the Altenwerder container terminal in Hamburg and the One Hammersmith is busy loading.
One day the bridge will be open again for cars and buses and bikes...But I believe I will be not able to take a photo from this POV again. This time the guard, seeing my efforts to take The Best Photo, led me to this point and I could take a Bridge in all its beauty...

Last year I worked on the other side of River Thames nearby this beautiful bridge and fell in love with it. Every morning when I finished night shift I had to cross the River and come back to this side to get to the train station. In the evening I had to cross the bridge to get on the other side. Today I will post 3 photos of this beautiful construction.
Those days only pedestrian sides were open, now the middle of the bridge is open for cyclists too.
Hammersmith Bridge, built in 1887, is one of the world's oldest suspension bridges which is why it is also one of Britain's most expensive to repair.
It is a Grade II* listed structure made out of wood and wrought iron with the suspension held in place by cast iron pedestals. It is part of Britain’s engineering heritage and a national landmark.
The bridge was fully closed in 2020 on public safety grounds, following the identification of micro-fractures in the 136-year-old structure. It was reopened in 2021, to pedestrians, cyclists and river traffic following extensive investigations and the introduction of a pioneering temperature control monitoring system.
Hammersmith & Fulham Council (H&F) has been told by the government to pay an unprecedented 33% of the estimated £250million repair bill which would normally have been paid in large part by Transport for London (TfL) and the Department for Transport (DfT). We have made it clear we can only raise that amount of money via a road user charge or toll.

Designed by Sir Joseph Bazalgette (of London sewer system fame), opened by the Prince of Wales (later King Edward VII) on 11 June 1887.
You could occasionally get this back in the day!
It may have been the last Scania to work this route but I'm not 100% sure.
Real 27 goes to Chiswick Business Park by the way, screw that awful awful Hammersmith Grove curtailment, so not on

Some moody looking clouds passing over Hammersmith Bridge in this long exposure shot. I say long exposure but it was only 11 seconds.
Thanks to London Lights, whose recent shot from the opposite bank of the Thames reminded me what an interesting bridge this is to photograph.
