Forth Bridge Display

To mark 122 years of the Forth Bridge we’ve created a small display bringing together a variety of items relating to the famous railway bridge and rail travel in Scotland. The display includes books about the construction and history of the bridge, material produced for the centenary in 1990 and some novels and books of poetry that reference the bridge, as well as a small selection of railway tourist brochures from the early twentieth century.
The display can be found in the cases outside the doors to the Reading Rooms in George IV Bridge until 28th March 2012. You can also view fascinating images showing the Forth Bridge under construction on our website.
Should you wish to discover further material on the Forth Bridge or railways in Scotland, you can find references to books, chapters and articles on Scottish Bibliographies Online.
