Harringworth Viaduct
Welland Viaduct, also known as Harringworth Viaduct and Seaton Viaduct, is a railway viaduct which crosses the valley of the River Welland between Harringworth in Northamptonshire and Seaton in Rutland, England. It is 3/4 of a mile long and has 82 arches, each of which has a 40ft span. It was completed in around 1878, and is the longest masonry viaduct across a valley in Britain. Welland Viaduct lies on the Oakham to Kettering Line and carries the twin track non-electrified line between Corby and Manton Junction on the Leicester to Peterborough line. The route is generally used for the passage of freight trains and steam train outings, though it is also available as a diversionary route for Midland Mainline.
