Nice image. I've never seen that bridge down before

That bridge does raise to let passage happen under the bridge! Good!

Interesting bridge design
Looks close to river.
Wouldn't get much passing beneath the span

The span goes up and down. Large ships pass through. I'll try to remember to post a picture of it in the up position.


Time waits for no one!

I'd looked at your photo thinking it'd have to raise but couldn't work out how.
Assume it'd rise at each end then
Will be good to see it up

I’m usually too busy looking for wildlife but I had to interrupt photographing deer to try and get a photo of this train coming in the early morning fog.
