Fledborough Viaduct which carried the now disused Chesterfield and Lincoln Direct Railway (and now a cyclepath) over the River Trent, close to North Clifton, Nottinghamshire.
The viaduct is a substantial structure which carried the double-track LD&ECR's Chesterfield Market Place to Lincoln Central main line over the River Trent. It is situated between the former stations of Fledborough and Clifton-on-Trent, but nearer the latter.
Opened in 1897, it consists of 59 arches spread either side of four metal girder spans which cross the river itself. Nine million bricks were used in its construction which cost £65,000.
Timetabled passenger services over the viaduct ended in September 1955, though Summer Weekend excursions from Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire to Cleethorpes and Mablethorpe and from Manchester Central to Yarmouth Vauxhall until 1964.
Traffic continued to run over the viaduct until 21 February 1980 when a train derailed at Clifton-on-Trent. The line from Pyewipe Junction over the viaduct to High Marnham was closed "temporarily" the next day and has subsequently been lifted.
Traffic continued from the West to High Marnham until it closed in 2003. Remarkably, since 2009 that stretch of line has had a new lease of life as Network Rail's High Marnham Test Track. Today the railway trackbed eastwards from the site of Fledborough station, across the Viaduct, through Clifton to Doddington & Harby forms an off-road part of National Cycle Route 647 which is part of the National Cycle Network. From Harby onwards through the site of Skellingthorpe almost to Pyewipe Junction the trackbed forms an off-road part of National Cycle Route 64.

Direction 'île Taquile à partir du lac Titicaca.
Le lac Titicaca, situé dans la cordillère des Andes, est traversé par la frontière entre la Bolivie et le Pérou. C'est le plus grand lac d'Amérique du Sud en volume d'eau1,2 et en longueur, mais pas en superficie (le lac Maracaibo couvre une superficie de plus de 13 000 km2). Il est aussi considéré comme le plus haut lac navigable du monde (altitude : 3 812 m)3, mais ce n'est rigoureusement exact que si on limite cette acception aux navires commerciaux de grande taille.
C'est par ce lac qu'est né la culture aimara avant la colonisation et la christianisation. Il existe une légende en relation avec ce lac : selon la légende le premier dieu Viracocha a surgit de ce lac et à créé le monde ainsi que toutes les civilisations des Andes.
