About nine years we were living in West Yorkshire, and one of our UK trips was
our world tour of Scotland. We drove to Fort William. Spent two nights there,
and took the train to Mallaig and back. Then we drove via Loch Ness to Inverness
and Aviemore. Two nights there, and then on to Edinburgh, where we spent two
nights. On that trip we crossed the Forth on the road bridge (there was only
one, then), next to the rail bridge. I took some photos of the rail bridge then.
One of the memorable views in my life. A very impressive construction. So I
never crossed it, but I've seen it.

Cheers
Ton.
