Rail operators have to stop their trains until someone can go out and check on bridge, confirming that it’s perfectly fine.

Trains cancelled over fake bridge collapse image

Rail services were cancelled after a 'hoax' picture of a damaged bridge appeared on social media

@slothrop @tferrer at this moment I'm watching a movie about a bank heist in which this type of diversion would fit perfectly.
