Firth of Forth Bridge

The Firth of Forth Bridge is a historic railway viaduct in Scotland that spans the Firth of Forth, connecting Edinburgh with the northern regions. Completed in 1890, it is renowned for its impressive use of steel and its distinctive, lattice-like design. The bridge was built to carry trains safely across the wide estuary, overcoming challenging conditions like deep water and strong winds. Its engineering innovations made it one of the earliest cantilever bridges, and it remains a symbol of Victorian engineering prowess. Today, it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, admired for its architectural and industrial significance.
