'''Yamuna Railway Bridge (Delhi)'''


The old Yamuna Bridge  was constructed in 1866 by the [[East India Railway]] (EIR) at a cost of £16,16,335. It was built with a total length of 2,640 feet and consisted of 12 spans of 202.5 feet each. With the completion of this bridge, two principal cities of North India, Kolkata ([[Calcutta]]) and [[Delhi]], were connected by the Railways; this being the last link of the trunk line on this route. In 1913, this was converted into a double line by adding down line girders of 12 spans of 202 feet each and 2 end spans of 42 feet to the bridge. For the movement of road traffic, two road bridges were provided below the lines.
