Rheneas Viaduct is a bridge on the Skarloey Railway .
History The Railway Series Rheneas Viaduct was built in 1865 and, along with the nearby tunnel , was the major engineering feature of the line. The viaduct spans a large, spectacular gorge. A stepped path descends into the gorge and goes under the viaduct.
In 1961, Duncan stalled on the viaduct with a passenger train out of jealousy for not being polished. Skarloey had to come to Duncan’s rescue.
Thomas & Friends When Boulder got loose from Boulder Quarry , he rolled across the Viaduct after Rheneas .
