A massive prestressed Railway beam bridge, the double tracked Niujiaoping Railway bridge has a prestressed main span of 630 feet (192 mtrs), one of the longest of its type anywhere in the world. Portugal's Ponte S. João bridge over the River Douro is the only railway beam bridge I know of that is longer at 820 feet (250 mtrs).
