Re: rms celtic.
yes it is a beautifull bridge.
if i can find a pic of the original dundee bridge i will post it .
it was around 715 pm when the train came across the bridge. the bridge was caught in a gale and as the rain was passing over it a large part of the bridge collapsed taking with it the train and the 75 passengers aboard.
about 2 years later hte train was raised or i should say the locomotive was raised and was refurbished and put back into service.
they nicknamed it the diver.
hmm go figure.
when i find a pic of it i will post it as well.

Re: rms celtic.

Re: rms celtic.
Yes - she was trouble in the shipping channel. *laugh* Saw a documentary on "Engineering Disasters" it was on there.

Re: rms celtic.
It was a mess. I've seen pictures on the History Channel and on History International.
