dbo:abstract
  • Das Crumlin-Viadukt war ein Eisenbahnviadukt hoch über dem Ort Crumlin, Caerphilly County Borough, Südwales, der die Zweigstrecke Taff Vale Extension der Newport, Abergavenny and Hereford Railway (NA&HR) über den Ebbw River führte, einer Strecke für die Kohlenzüge zwischen den südwalisischen Bergwerken und dem Hafen in Newport. Das 1857 eröffnete Viadukt war wohl die erste hohe Eisenbahnbrücke, bei der sowohl die Brückenträger als auch die Pfeiler aus Eisen gefertigt waren. Das 61 m hohe Bauwerk war das höchste Eisenbahnviadukt Großbritanniens. Seine Planung soll von der 71 m hohen hölzernen Portage Bridge in den USA beeinflusst worden sein. 1964 wurde es im Rahmen des Streckenschließungsprogramms der britischen Regierung (Beeching Axe) geschlossen und anschließend abgebaut.

  • The Crumlin Viaduct was a railway viaduct located above the village of Crumlin in South Wales, originally built to carry the Taff Vale Extension of the Newport, Abergavenny and Hereford Railway (NA&HR) across the Ebbw River. Hailed as "one of the most significant examples of technological achievement during the Industrial Revolution", in its 107 years of service until being dismantled in 1965, it remained: the least expensive bridge for its size ever constructed; the tallest railway viaduct in the United Kingdom; the third tallest viaduct in the world, after the aqueduct at Spoleto, Italy, and the timber viaduct in Portage, New York state.
