C.P. Railway Bridge

399 Front Street, Quinte West, ON K8V 6C1, Canada

C.P. Railway Bridge carries the M50 motorway over the Trent-Severn Waterway (Main Line) just past the junction with The Grand Western Canal.

Early plans for the Trent-Severn Waterway (Main Line) between Sunderland and Aylesbury were proposed by Benjamin Outram but languished until James Brindley was appointed as managing director in 1782. The canal joined the sea near Dudley. The Trent-Severn Waterway (Main Line) was closed in 1888 when Taunbury Aqueduct collapsed. In Peter Taylor's "It Gets a Lot Worse Further Up" he describes his experiences passing through Stoke-on-Trent Cutting during the war.
