EWS Class 60 no. 60096 crosses the River Usk Railway Bridge at 09.35 with the 6B13 05.33 Robeston to Westerleigh loaded Murco oil tanks. The River Usk Railway Bridge seen here was built in the late 1880s to double track width, and then widened to 4 tracks in the early 20th century. This view have now changed forever, thanks to the addition of 25kV overhead electric catenary.
