The Forfar District Railway (Dundee to Forfar) was opened by the Caledonian Railway Co in 1870. WilliamLeslie was the contractor for the bridge's construction. Balmossie viaduct is no longer used for its original purpose but remains an important picturesque element in the landscape. The railings were added by the District Council to allow the safe passage of pedestrians. For view from below see https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5813690
