CP Henschel 2-6-4T No. 095 crosses the Rio Douro from Vila Nova de Gaia to Porto on the Ponte Dona Maria Pia, designed by Eiffel and built in 1876/77. It is working the 07:30 stopping passenger train from Espinho to Porto Campanhã, 9th November 1970. The bridge was closed and replaced by a modern concrete structure, the Ponte São João in 1991, though it is still in situ. The matching road bridge can just be seen in the right background. Slide No. 5962.

on July 31, 2011Mr. Plumb should be awarded an honorary portuguese citizenship. Your slides (and your friends') are amongst the best records available of the late steam/ early diesel era in Portugal. Highly commended collection!
