- the biggest manmade construction of its time - it was the largest civil engineering structure of the nineteenth century.
- the largest span bridge in the world
- also the first bridge to be constructed purely of steel . In fact in using steel produced by the Siemens open-hearth process, it established mild steel as a reliable structural material
- The bridge took seven years to build, cost £3.2 million (counting £250,000 for the abortive construction work on the earlier bridge designed by ) and used in excess of 50,000 tons of steel and 6.5 million rivets
- Fifty eight people died, one hundred and six received serious injuries and five hundred and eighteen other accidents occurred over the seven years construction lasted.
- A total of 5000 workers were employed in its construction
- In 1907 29,675 passenger trains crossed the bridge with a gross weight of 14,674,750 tons. This usage contrasts with the present day - when during 2000 the bridge carried 54,080 passenger and 6,240 freight trains with a gross weight of 10,500,000 tons.

Why is the green leaf on the poppy only used in England and not Scotland?
You really need to ask the English. Poppies do not have green leaves like that. The Scottish poppy is a more accurate representation.
I believe the green leaf is supposedly for asthetic purposes, but it's a mystery to me.
The English are correct poppy is worn over the heart and the leaf is worn at the 11 o'clock position to signify the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month.The date and time war ended and the date and time we all remember.It is not for aesthetic purposes!
What is eternal life and love?
The only life and love that can be eternal is a life that is lived for God alone. He offered us that gift, as his dearly loved children.
John 17:3Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.
It is clear that a relationship with the only true God and Jesus Christ is the only way to live an uninterrupted forever true, changeless interminable life. It is he who is Eternal love, expressing that love not just in the eternal life he has given us through his Son, but also daily as he takes your hand and walks with you through every area of your life. And if you'll let him, if you'll turn your life over to him....
John 12:25The man who loves his life will lose it, while the man who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life.
He will live his glory though you and you and your life will be the glory of God. But make no mistake that through your salvation or through your eternal death, God will still be glorified. He is a great and almighty God.
Will you receive this love today? Repent of your sins and receive the truth, the love and he eternal life that is yours.
