Arakawa-Nakagawa Bridge, Railway bridge in Edogawa district, Japan
The Arakawa-Nakagawa Bridge spans 1,236 meters across the Arakawa River, featuring 16 Warren truss sections painted in light blue supporting the Tokyo Metro Tozai Line.
The bridge opened in March 1969 and held the record for the longest private railway bridge in Japan until the Kansai International Airport Bridge construction.
The bridge represents a vital transportation link between Tokyo's eastern districts, connecting the residential areas of Edogawa with the commercial zones of Koto.
The structure stands on foundations extending 72 meters underground due to soft soil conditions, ensuring stability for the frequent train crossings between Nishi-kasai and Minami-sunamachi stations.
A tornado struck the bridge in February 1978, causing three cars of a ten-car train to derail, marking a significant incident in Japanese railway history.
