阿賀野川橋梁, Railway bridge in Niigata and Agano, Japan.

The Agano River Bridge spans 1,229 meters across the Agano River, connecting the Akiha ward of Niigata City with Agano City.

Built in 1912, this bridge held the record as Japan's longest railway bridge, featuring Schwedler truss sections until structural modifications in 1963.

The bridge forms an essential part of the JR East Uetsu Main Line, linking communities along the Agano River and supporting regional transportation.

Trains on the bridge offer views of the surrounding landscape, while the structure serves as a reference point for engineering students and professionals.

Following damage in 1961, the bridge underwent reconstruction using parts transferred from other bridges, creating its current mixed structural design.
