Keadby Bridge – 1978 Built between 1912 and 1916, the bridge is unusual in carrying both a main road and a main railway. With a lifting span of 50 metres, it was the largest of its type in Europe when first built. It was fixed in 1960 when modifications were made to the bridge. Now Listed Grade II. The bus is 822SHW of local (Doncaster) operator Dalehill Coaches, formerly belonging to Bristol Omnibus as no.7129. It is a Bristol Lodekka FLF with ECW bodywork, new in 1964 and is seen on a bus enthusiast tour. This is one of a series of views featuring buses in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. <a title="https://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=137652761" href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=137652761">Link</a>
