Severn Bridge S&W 1967

Looking back towards Lydney. Peter Kerslake says "Following the disastrous events of the night of the 25th October of 1960 which ended the life of the Severn Bridge the remote Severn Bridge station, which had been the last station on the Welsh side of line across the Severn, is still intact in this view seven years after the accident which brought down two spans of the bridge that night and the platforms and boarded up signal box seen here lingered on into the 'seventies allthough the masonry approach viaduct which would have been behind the cameraman was earlier blown up by demolition contractors in March 1968".
