Preston

The old Vicars Bridge at Preston has been replaced by this new construction, still spanning the site of the tracks at the southern throat of the ELR side of Preston station. See image 53688 for a 1964 view from the old bridge down to the EL platforms. The bridge is the access to the old railway hotel, later council offices and now empty but reported to be returning to hotel use in due course.
