The Southern Railway built some exceedingly attractive locomotives and their lines passed through stunning countryside such a pity then that they insisted in constructing most of their infrastructure, from fence posts to whole stations, out of highly unattractive concrete
This footbridge at Seaton Junction is one such example but is unusual in that it was far longer than most as it crossed both the Southern Main Line to Exeter and the line departing for Seaton - in total six tracks - but, with both station and branch line closed and the main line singled, it now crosses but one line.
One shot from each end (guess which end is furthest from prying eyes ):
