THE photograph of the transporter bridge at Middlesbrough by Joe Cornish ('Iron in the soul of the North', Review, 13 February) was impressive but the caption did not fully convey the purpose of the bridge, ie to transport vehicles and passengers across the Tees on a moving platform. As a matter of interest, the Sydney harbour bridge was made in Middlesbrough and then transported by ship to Australia.
