Gulin Railway Bridge is one of two tall beam bridges on the Xudaitielu Railway that now connects Luzhou in Sichuan with Northwestern Guizhou. A central span of 80 meters rests on piers as high as 106 meters.

Also near Gulin city and approximately the same height is the Sancaowan Railway Bridge.

The line from Luzhou splits just west of Gulin where the route to Bijie is still under construction.
