What is recorded here
Castlebank Street Bridge carried trains across Glasgow during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, its iron ribs bending under the weight of coal and passengers. The structure still stands as a railway bridge, though the official point sits within a hundred metres of the exact span. That distance leaves room for the true shape to emerge, perhaps a taller arch or a wider deck than the number suggests.
