Rheneas Bridge is a short river bridge on the Skarloey Railway. It is located between Glennock and the Rheneas Tunnel. The Hawin Dooiey runs underneath the bridge.
History[]
Due to high winds and rain, the original bridge was once damaged and blown away in 1961.[1] It was subsequently rebuilt, and is said to resemble the girder bridge before Glennock.

Trivia[]
- The bridge is based on the Ynys Ferlas bridge on the Welsh Highland Railway.
