A steam train crossing the former Victorian Railway Viaduct over the Vale of Dale House, Staithes, Whitby, North Yorkshire UK (Designer John Dickson). It was built from iron & concrete to carry the Whitby, Redcar and Middlesbrough Union Railway over the valley in 1875 but didn’t open until 1883. Because of the Tay Bridge disaster in 1879, the extra strengthening lateral braces seen in the picture were added later. A bell was also added for safety in and rung when there were high winds meaning a speed limit of 20 mph.. The viaduct was demolished in 1960 Stock Photo
