accident. The driver was injured. The locomotive was salvageable. The cause of the accident was found to be that the rails failed to match properly when the bridge was closed, so the bridge was modified again to solve this problem. The bridge lasted several decades more before being replaced by two swing bridges in the early 1900s, one for the railway, and one for the road traffic. The pivot and the sandstone abutments of the railway bridge are still standing and can be viewed on the left of the present bridge as one travels towards the north.

The lifting section is one of only a few remaining in the

Towards the end of 2010, the State government released plans for a new
