Class 25, up PW train, Sankey viaduct SJ568945 An unidentified Class 25 trundles across Sankey viaduct heading east with, what appears to be, some sort of permanent way working. The first wagons seem to be carrying electrification wiring with a vintage carriage behind. Sankey viaduct became a Grade I listed structure in 1966 due to its international significance as 'the earliest major railway viaduct in the world'* In this view, looking north-east, some industry is seen behind the viaduct at the top of the ridge. In recent years this large industrial area has been cleared and covered by housing with the first row of the houses affording spectacular views of the viaduct from their gardens and south-west facing windows! *Sankey Viaduct (L&MR) engineering-timelines.com Keywords: Class 25 up PW train Sankey viaduct SJ568945
