Opened on 24 February 1914,[1] it was India's first sea bridge,[2] and was the longest sea bridge in India until the opening of the Bandra-Worli Sea Link in 2010. The rail bridge is, for the most part, a conventional bridge resting on concrete piers but has a double-leaf bascule section midway, which can be raised to let ships and barges pass through. Until 1988, the Pamban bridge was the only surface transport that connected Tamil Nadu's island of Rameswaram to the mainland India. On 23 December 2022, the bascule of this bridge was damaged due to extreme corrosion and so the sensors gave continuous warning signal which suspended transportation on the bridge permanently.[3] The last train which officially ran on this bridge was Train no. 07695 Secunderabad - Rameswaram Special Express, which completed its commercial journey on the previous day. [4] In February 2023, the Southern Railway announced that the train traffic to Rameshwaram through Pamban bridge has been completely stopped and will be restored through the new Pamban bridge after its completion. The railway bridge is located 12.5 metres (41 ft) above sea level and is 6,776 ft (2,065 m) long .[8] The bridge consists of 143 piers and has a double-leaf bascule section with a Scherzer rolling type lift span that can be raised to let ships pass. Each half of the lifting span weighs 415 tonnes (457 tons).[9] The two leaves of the bridge are opened manually using levers. #shorts #indian #motivation #female #railways #indianrailways #locomotive #story #travellingknow2.0
