Tay Rail Bridge

Tay Rail Bridge
Den første Tay Rail Bridge over fjorden Tay ved Dundee i Skotland var en kassebro med en enkeltsporet jernbane. Broen blev færdiggjort den 31. maj 1878.
Broens gennemsejlingsfag styrtede sammen en stormfuld morgen 28. december 1879. Ved sammenstyrtningen forsvandt også et tog med seks personvogne - 75 passagere og togets personale omkom.
Den anden Tay Rail Bridge blev færdig i 1887 og er stadig i brug.
