The old bridge did really well to last 140 years. Even today, infrastructure is usually designed to only last 100 years.

It was repainted many times which extended its life, the new bridge is designed to lay less time but requires no painting, shorter life for low maintenance

@nigelkthomas9501 7 жыл бұрын

Excellent, but if I'd been in charge of this reconstruction I'd have taken the opportunity to eliminate that short section of single track just east of the bridge. A scissors crossing about half a mile outside York station would allow far more flexibility. A train could enter York from Scarborough at the same time another one is departing for Scarborough.

@ernestglum7688 6 жыл бұрын

What is the purpose of that section? Is it to prevent more than one train on the bridge at once?

Actually yes, and it would not be the first time the Political nose was thrust into sensible public works projects. It was probably presumptuous or my part to criticize without more information but there has been clear examples of this behavior where I live. Your point is taken.

Why did they leave 100 metres of single track just behind the bridge?

@xaiano794 6 жыл бұрын

because of the junction design - to add double track would require 2 additional sets of points, resignalling and would require more maintenance - there would be little to no benefits since the volume of traffic is extremely low and basically a complete waste of money.

There is a speed reduction because of that interchange. It would be worth it in the long run.

@xaiano794 5 жыл бұрын

@@samfrancisco8095 the speed restriction is due to the curve of platform 4/approach to 5 - there would literally be no benefit at all

@xaiano794 5 жыл бұрын

@Giuseppe Battagliese You're wrong - I drive trains here at York and you don't understand the track layout, trust me there is no benefit despite what it may look like. We will be doubling trains over this route in December this year and there won't be any issues caused by this junction whatsoever. I completely agree that there are many bottlenecks, particularly at York but this is not one of them - if they were going to spend money on York I'd say an additional track out the north end would make a huge difference, up to skelton jn, and realign the slow over skelton bridge so that speeds could be raised to 60-70mph.

Just wondering why they hauled the bridge sections and the crawler through the streets when the could have just railed it in? It's your rail line so you can put it in a yard and move it in and out when you want without permits or the possibility of damaging historic buildings. It'd be quieter for the residents too.
