Tokyo, Japan's Bridges: Kesei Railway Bridge across the Sumida River

March 2012 (35.744 Degrees, 139.789 Degrees) Kesei Railway Bridge

The next river crossing is a railway bridge that carries the Kesei Main Line, which is a private railway that goes between Tokyo and Narita Airport. I usually take the JR Express to and from the airport, but the Kesei Line provides a pretty trip through Chiba Prefecture.

This is a two span Warren Truss with vertical members and rounded top chords, similar to thousands of other railroad bridges all over the world.
