  15. In 1958 the majority of the drawings held in Dundalk works of stations over the northern side of the border were passed on to the UTA who passed them on to the government of Northern Ireland archive who destroyed them as they were deemed to have no value. All the drawings of Omagh held by the IRRS were copied digitally and those copies were supplid to you a while ago.

The bars that decend from the right are same length it the bar it's self is same but is it's made from two 3inch L channels forming a T shape . This swaps over halfway across the bridge the bars cross each other at 3ft 6 inches and start 2ft 8 inches apart at the top and base. the lattice is 6ft from top to bottom.
