The Forth bridges from over Inverkeithing
The Forth bridges from over Inverkeithing
Looking south in 1973 over the Firth of Forth towards South Queensferry. The road bridge is wearing out after just under half a century, while the rail bridge is still going strong after well over a century - it opened in 1890.
