The 1857  engraving

appears to have been subject to artistic licence showing the Dundas Aqueduct extending to include the railway span, which it did not. I think it is important to note that this was a separate aqueduct originally constructed to span the broad gauge tracks of what became a GWR route to link up with the LSWR and should be recognised as engineered by Brunel.

Sorry to ping up an old thread but I’ve found this an interesting read. I made a video last summer on the aqueduct which has some drone shots which show both portals, I thought it may be of use to the earlier comments. 
 

this is one of my earlier videos so the editing and sound is a bit naff so apologies for that.
