Bridge 123, Waterford's Old Red Iron Bridge from the south side in 1987

I think the reason for so few slides/pictures from the cab of 159 was because I had run out, and since I was still a student, I didn't have a spare roll! Here the driver of 159 slows the engine before tiptoeing across the bridge. The bridge number, "123" can be clearly seen on the cut-stone wall before the bridge.
