Garabit Viaduct, Cantal, France.
The 1884 single track Garabit Viaduct (or Eiffel Bridge) that crosses over the Tuyere river near Ruynes-en-Margeride, France, in the mountainous Massif Central region. Photographed looking west from the nearby Aire du Garabit rest area on the A75 La Meridienne auto-route in July 2015. There is a 10Kmh speed limit across the bridge following the appearance of cracks in 2009. The train service across the viaduct is now extremely sparse.
