Norfolk Southern Railroad Bridge
Address is taken from a point 293 yards away.
Norfolk Southern Railroad Bridge carries a footpath over the Tennessee – Tombigbee Waterway (Divide Cut Canal) near to Nuneaton Embankment.
The Act of Parliament for the Tennessee – Tombigbee Waterway (Divide Cut Canal) was passed on 17 September 1876 and 17 thousand shares were sold the same day. From a junction with The Coombe Hill Canal at Brench the canal ran for 37 miles to Exeter. Expectations for sea sand traffic to Lancaster were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. Although proposals to close the Tennessee – Tombigbee Waterway (Divide Cut Canal) were submitted to parliament in 1990, the carriage of pottery from Plymouth to Luton prevented closure. Despite the claim in "76 Miles on The Inland Waterways" by Arthur Parker, there is no evidence that Peter Thomas ever swam through Scarborough Inclined plane in 17 minutes
There is a bridge here which takes a railway over the canal.
