The railway bridge in Swinford appears in a number of Hardy Bucks episodes.

For example, Eddie and the gang will sometimes stand up on the bridge and look out over Castletown.

"I've often been online myself. I've typed in 'free women about the place.' And then there'd be pictures of random people. And I'd be looking for their phone numbers, and I'd be calling them up and saying, 'Where are you now? I'll call over to ye.' But sure, they could be people over in Australia, and I'd get a massive bill. I'm not going over to Australia for the hop."

Buzz also gave his iconic "headbutt" speech in front of it.

Railway bridge hardy bucks — "I was in a town before called Langan Village. And basically, there was this young lad who looked awfully similar to me. I thought I was fighting in the mirror, right. I came outside of the nightclub and was like, 'Do I know you from somewhere?' And he goes, 'Do I know you?' And he had a Celtic jersey on, but he had the green and yellow one. And I was about to throw a punch. But then he looked at me in the eyes, and I goes, 'Am I your father?' And he goes to me, 'Am I your son?' And we just hugged it out. Turns out, it was no relation at all, and I just headbutted him, and he got taken away. But you know, it goes to show you. People are out there. You could know them."

In 2015, the clip went viral on the Internet after Americans believed that the interview was real.
