Re: Dumb Kweschun
Don't know if this one has been mentioned: the bridge on the Potts Hill
Reservoir branch. THis bridge crossed over the goods lins about 1 km from
Rookwood Road, going towards Sefton. It was removed circa 1992.
Has the Metropolitan Colliery Branch been mentioned?
The Flying Junctions near Central?
A long bow, but could the various mains, suburbans & locals over the Engine
Dive at Redfern be counted?
Border Loop?
Blah blah blah from a late entrant to this thread. :-)
