Location City -  Keilor East
State -  VICTORIA
Country - Australia   Australia
About The bridge was built in 1928 and was (and still is believed to be) the highest railway bridge in Victoria. It crosses the Maribyrnong River from Keilor East on the North side to Sunshine on the South side of the river.
Being 54.6 metres above the river , the bridge is higher than the Sydney Harbour Bridge (52 metres) and the Westgate Bridge (53 metres) and in fact is high enough to top the flagpole on the Flinders Street Clock Tower. It is .4 of a kilometre or a quarter of a mile long – it was known in railway circles as the Quartermile. The girders were sunk up to 20 metres below ground level to obtain firm foundations for the concrete pedestals, onto which the big steel towers were erected. The bridge is noteworthy for its unusual K frame bracing. In its construction, 1,600 tons of steel and 6,000 cubic metres of concrete were used. It was truly a gigantic project seventy odd years ago. Approximately 200 men were employed to build the bridge and one man lost his life during its construction.
Originally only goods trains used the line but it was used for troop trains during the Second World War. Since standardisation of the Victoria/N.S.W. line, all Sydney trains cross the bridge.

HDR 3 shot exposure (-2,0,+2) on tripod .Using Photomatix and Adobe Lightroom.
