Railway bridge
This bridge appears to be much wider than it needs to be. It, together with a similar bridge over Salisbury Street just to the east [http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1168706], were part of Cumberland Street Station, built in 1900 (originally called Eglinton Street) by the Glasgow and South Western Railway. Presumably the wider section here was to accommodate the platforms.
