The B733 used to cross this railway bridge with awkward bends in the road. The modern road now filled in the railway cutting and progresses smoothly towards the A75. The old Kirkcowan Railway Station building can be just made out behind the bridge. More detail of the line here : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portpatrick_and_Wigtownshire_Joint_Railway
