Railway bridge in Hendon
Image: © Malc McDonald Taken: 3 Jul 2011
A railway bridge carrying the Midland Main Line and Thameslink trains over Aerodrome Road in Hendon, North West London. The bridge is newly-built, but the railway line is not new, being the 'London Extension' of the Midland Railway from Bedford to London, opened in 1868. The bridge replaced an older bridge which had much lower and narrower clearance for road vehicles. Replacing the bridge has removed these restrictions.
