The railway track on the Forth Bridge, built in 1890, is 46 metres above the water level. Ther is about a 3 metre variation in the tide at Leith.
Why does the QE need to go under it anyway?



Edited to remove: It's 110 metres, according to Wiki - height and height above the water level not being the same, of course.
