Three Thames Railway Bridges

Three of the railway bridges across the Thames, as seen from the river. Blackfriars carries Thameslink services across London from north to south and the modern Blackfriars station platforms have been extended across the bridge itself. The foundations of the first railway bridge still stand alongside their replacement. Hungerford bridge caters for traffic out of Charing Cross and has the two pedestrian Golden Jubilee bridges attached, using the same supports. Grosvenor bridge is described as the busiest railway bridge in the world, dealing with the main line southwards from Victoria station.
