Welwyn & Hertford Junction Railway

[Borne]

hi everyone, i am new to this forum.

i am looking in to the history of this line, and am wondering if anyone has any information about, or even pictures of, this line when it was in operation. namely the Hertford end. I am curious to find images of the, now dismantled, bridge that crossed the River Mimram just after the line passed under the viaduct at Hertford.

I know it is quite an esoteric request, but I am curious to learn more about this line, and disused-stations.org can only tell me so much

thanks

I'm also interested in the railway history of the Hertford Loop not to mention the railway history of Hertford as a whole.

Anyway, a quick look on Google has given me this: certainly came handy when a passenger asked my SSM what year the current Hertford North was built and she didn't know - still because I have a copy of the map in the office I was able to explain to both passenger and SSM that the station was built back in 1924.

The Signalbox.org is helpful:

This is probably another good site as well:

Not a problem, it takes pride of place by the front door anyway to the office,
