Three cantilevers from the south shore on the occasion of Queensferry superstructure attaining its full height

Photograph of the 3 cantilevers from the south shore. These views were taken about the same time, viz. on the occasion of Queensferry superstructure attaining its full height, hence the flags thereon. They differ only in respect of bearing, one making the larger angle with centre line of bridge. Transcription from: Philip Phillips, 'The Forth Railway Bridge', Edinburgh, 1890.
