- A film documenting the construction of the Byker Viaduct which crosses the Ouseburn valley. The viaduct carries the metro line, linking Byker to the centre of Newcastle upon Tyne
Fascinating video of one of the most iconic images of the Metro network.
really interesting film, some risks involved for the workforce in putting the viaduct together. Hats off.
At 15:13 I just spotted a Ford D series truck in the black/coffee livery.. going towards Byker that was "Star Remoulds" otherwise known as Durham Rubber, from Market Lane Chester-le-Street my dad could have been driving that ! On a drop at Kwik Fit Heaton Thanks for posting !
