' Suir Railway Bridge was opened in 1906, which enabled passenger boat trains to enter Waterford North station before moving east towards Rosslare. Built by the famous Scottish engineer, Sir Robert McAlpine, the Suir Bridge was a nine-span opening structure, 1205 feet in length with an 80-foot span in the centre.
