Very interesting post👍 I remember about 50 years ago the road bridge over the main line into Euston, at Southgate, was replaced. They'd built a Bailey bridge next to the line, after covering the rails with old sleepers, at night they blew up the bridge, cleared the rubble, installed the Bailey and by morning the road and rail lines were open again. They then built the new road bridge. I watched them building the Bailey, past my bedtime to see the bang though 😀

And again the same clumsy, ugly and obtrusive mast system as on the GWML. It wouldn't have to be like that. You could ask yourselves why 'they' don't learn?

Have you got any time lapse of bridge replacements?

So where is it? Is that a secret?… knowledge is power… don’t tell anyone…

the Romans built that bridge

Are the Coal Lines going to be wired up as well?

I agree with you as to the shape and design but the MR did not envisage electrification arriving for many decades. Now it has, if only in rather piecemeal stages, I gather.

😢

After a bit of searching it seem to be the bridge at roughly 52.463927,-0.887338 , and it really wasnt a loss in terms of conectivity since just 1 field further there is an underpass aswell as several other crossings , still very intersting to see such a bridge removal project sped up :)

To be replaced with a concrete toilet.

I thought they'd abandoned the Midland Mainline electrification project north of Kettering, once the branch to Corby had been completed. Is it continuing to Leicester, Nottingham, Derby and Sheffield or is this old footage?

Absolute vandalism ...the track could have been lowered....don't raise the bridge lower the river..as they used to say to point out the obvious.

What went over the bridge and how does it cross the railway now? Very interesting though.

What a lovely bridge... shame it had to go ... bet it must have been at least 2x as old as of the demo team

Where was the bridge located.

Is a replacement planned, or did the bridge carry a highway for which an alternative route is available?

Very impressive. Nice work by the team.

Clearly this nice looking bridge was not worth applying the Bill Harvey ‘lifting’ technique of cutting the piers, raising the arches and inserting extra brickwork to provide enough clearance for the overhead wires.

Bit Sad to lose a nice bridge, would have taken a lot longer to put up than it was to take down.

Interesting video….👍

The sad thing is that all this work was done to partly allow additional passenger services to run between Manchester and Sheffield but there are no plans to introduce any! Capacity constraints at Stockport and Sheffield make that impossible at the moment. It will, of course, make services more reliable and reduce the delays caused by passenger trains being stuck behind slower freights but it’s a shame the full benefits will not be realised.

Although at the junction the line to Sheffield is doubled , the chord to the south has been left single still, why?

Where is Hope Valley? Bill from California

Why am I hearing Coldplay in this 😅. Not complaining, and good work too.

Great to hear about rail improvements, but too short.

ok, this is epic

Can anybody provide background on what's happening here? Some sort if erosion control?

Keep the videos coming

Excellent job....awesome..

Great job, but I can't help thinking how little more it would have cost to have them add a pedestrian lane to the bridge.

COOL

We have a "Story" company here in Tulsa, OK. wonder if they are related. hmmm

So now 5 Years old it is still an amazing video. But i'm wondering too that they don't replace the old piers.

next time bring a bridge large enough to lift the bridge out of position and ferry it away :0 ahhaha
