LMS Route: Hampton in Arden to Whitacre
Hampton to Whitacre Lineside Views: mrsbr173
Bridge No 6 - one of the river bridges built with timber -
looking towards Coleshill with Hampton beyond on 8th July 1951. There were five
river bridges provided along the route between Hampton and Whitacre, the
majority being constructed from timber. The track seen fixed to the bridge are
rails installed under Midland Railway ownership having their wooden keys inside
the rail instead of outside as was the case with most other railway
companies.
