The Grade II listed https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1292315 viaduct carried the lines from the former Central Station, dividing into two over Castlefield and rejoining west of the River Medlock. The left hand portion now carries the Metrolink line out of Deansgate/Castlefield. The right hand portion is still unused. A separate viaduct that carries the railway line from Deansgate to Salford Crescent can be seen on the left.
