Rail swing bridge , Oxford
This bridge is normally considered to be over the Oxford Canal. Strictly it is over a Thames backwater which connects with the Oxford Canal, Isis lock branch, which latter consists only of the lock. Now still in situ but derelict, in 1977 it was still in use, but evidently only for one of its two tracks. Although a Wednesday mid-morning, it has been left open for navigation, which was not the case in earlier times.

Would have gone that way
The old rail line that led to the station would have gone in that direction though it would have been more to the right where the building is.

Rewley Road Swing Bridge, Oxford
The remains of this railway swing bridge over the Sheepwash Channel makes for an odd sight - very much a railway to nowhere. It was built in 1850-51 to a design by Robert Stephenson and was used by passenger traffic until 1951 and freight traffic until 1984. Trains used it to access Oxford's Rewley Road station which has now been demolished. The bridge is owned by the Oxford Preservation Trust who hope to restore it as an important part of the city's industrial heritage.
