Located in Chongqing just a few kilometers west of the Hubei border, the Xiangjiaba Railway Bridge is one of more then half a dozen high pier and beam bridges on the extension of the Yichang-Wanzhou Railway that also goes to Chongqing City.

The 5 span bridge has 3 central spans of an unknown length supported on piers 80 meters tall. The bridge can easily be seen and reached from the G50 expressway just a few kilometers to the south.
