Errr that one was built by Wm Arrol & Co. (Designed by William Henry Barlow)

Bouche's bridge is at the bottom of the river as a result of a major rail accident in 1879 which demonstrated why cast iron isn't the best material to use in tension.....



The boat has been puzzling me for a while too......

It's very orange; even the engines. Maybe it's Dutch.

The cabin and size make me think it could be a Delta, but the tubes look too small and the bow is far too low to be one of theirs.
