Description
English: Boyne Viaduct
The Boyne Viaduct opened in 1855, was the final connection of the railway line between Dublin and Belfast. The original structure was a continuous girder bridge 550ft 4ins overall, in three spans. The two outer spans are 141ft 8ins, and the centre span 267ft 0ins. The structure is approx 100ft above the River Boyne.

In 1932 the centre span was reconstructed to allow the heavier GNRI Steam Engines to work Express trains from Belfast to Dublin.
