Blackball bridge washout, 21st February,1966. - ALBUM -

About this image

Description- 21 February 1966. Repairs to the bridge were considered too expensive and the Railways decided to close the line.
Spans of the bridge had been washed away on a number of occasions earlier, mostly one or two spans of the original bridge at a time, and then laboriously repaired. This bridge was always one of the areas investigated after any storm affecting the Grey River.Date of Photo21st February,1966Map^[1]ContributorArthur Blance‎
