bridge could use a little work, but the tornado looks beautiful regardless, nice job!
-
Two examples of great engineering in one video. 5/5 :)

I had a dream that I was building the Forth Rail Bridge. It was more like a memory of a previous life. It was quite strange and I was rather high on a precarious piece of scaffholding.
Oh sorry I forgot, other people's dreams are boring aren't they!!!

Lovely sight, fine video
-
In that case it will outlive the road bridge, which is supposed to be out of life by 2016!
-
Lovely vid, and yes, Tornado is coming back again to Edinburgh on Sat Mar 7 to haul the North Briton back to York - due Inverkeithing 1047, south sub 1109, out of Waverley 1417 - so more vids to come....

Yes they are. They put them up when they're painting the bridge.

Still a great video despite your excuses! Regarding the earlier comment about "temporary structures", the Forth Bridge is undergoing a complete makeover to remove years of "neglect", i.e. elongated painting schedules which resulted in large pieces of rust forming and falling into gardens in North Queensferry! Costing around £40M the bridge is being stripped and painted to oil rig standard and the paint will last about 25 years, due to be finished in 2011.

As it turns out, it wouldn't have been much better on a tripod - it really needs fluid damping at that distance and my tripod doesn't have it.

Great Capture all the same - 5* The scaffolding and cladding on the Forth Bridge - are these temporary structures?

They are temporary, and they have been for several years now! ;)
They are for repainting work - old paint is being sandblasted off, any damaged steelwork is being repaired, then new paint with a "20 year" life is being applied. It was originally to have been finished around now, but is now expected to take until 2012!

why is it going north of Edinburgh with a support coach?

It's spending the next week stabled at Glenrothes I believe. It'll return to Edinburgh next Saturday for a railtour back down to York (I think).
