Tour Scotland Video Tay Railway Bridge
Tour Scotland video of the Tay Railway Bridge over the Firth of Tay across from Dundee, Scotland. The Tay Bridge is a railway bridge approximately two and a quarter miles long that spans the Firth of Tay in Scotland, between the city of Dundee and the suburb of Wormit in Fife. The present structure is the second one on its site. From about 1854, there had been plans for a Tay crossing, to replace an early train ferry. The first bridge, opened in 1878, was a single track lattice design, notable for lightness and low cost. Its sudden collapse in a high wind on 28 December 1879 was one of the great engineering disasters of history, and its causes are still debated today. This second bridge was a double track construction of iron and steel, opened in 1887 and still in service.
