A fascinating set of views. I know the engineer Bouch was well-known for his lightweight bridges on other railways, but this group of photos gives a graphic impression of the fragility of the first Tay Bridge.

The bridge collapsed in a storm the night of the 28th December 1879. Unfortunately a train was on it at the time and the 75 passengers and crew on board were killed.

I'm sorry, but isn't the date incorrect? If this photo truly was taken before the collapse, then it couldn't have been taken at any time after December 28, 1879.
