Title
Forth Bridge - Works at Inchgarvie after first three lifts
Description
Photograph of the Forth Bridge works at Inchgarvie after first three lifts. Just one month has elapsed since last view of Inchgarvie was secured. The picture is taken from a point a little south of line running between the vertical ties, thus closing the southern main tubes, and consequently affording a clear view of the work. The platforms are rapidly creeping away from the struts, which have now to be supported by chains from above. Though there are more imposing pictures in the series, there are none which afford a more detailed view of the working arrangements at this point. Transcription from: Philip Phillips, 'The Forth Railway Bridge', Edinburgh, 1890.
