Hirosagawa Railway Bridge
第二広瀬川橋梁
Sendai, Miyagi, Japan
167 feet high / 51 meters high
71 foot span / 21.6 meter span
1931


The Hirosagawa Railway Bridge is one of Japan's few high level rail line crossings. Opened in 1931, the trestle has one main tower and several short spans that mimic the style of trestle that was also being constructed in the United States during this time period. The bold red local route 48 Hirose River arch bridge parallels the trestle offering a great viewpoint to catch a crossing train.
