... this bridge reminds me of the meccano sets my brothers played with when they were kids. I thought it was new, but it was originally built in 1942 and was located further down the Canal serving as a twin track railway bridge linking the docks with Trafford Park. It was re-located to its present position in 1988. ........lets freewheel down this path and take a closer look >>>>>>> see next photo. :)

Yes i see what you mean with the meccano bridge, they are very known to me since we have a lot of those railway bridges here in holland to, most of them are replaced or relocated like it was the case here as well.
Bridges can be fun object to shoot, thanks for this image as well and have a good weekend.

the lines on the bridge and the colors have been captured very well. And the way the fence draws your eye to the bridge is a real good touch. You did well on this one.
