Iron railway bridge that ‘changed the world’ to return home to Durham

Curators at National Railway Museum at Shildon say they are delighted and proud to get Gaunless bridge back

It may not look like it helped change the world but the 200-year-old Gaunless Bridge did just that, its supporters say, and its name deserves to be shouted from the rafters.

Locomotion, the National Railway Museum at Shildon in County Durham, is preparing to welcome home what is the world’s oldest surviving iron railway bridge.
