Fulham Railway Bridge, Railway and pedestrian bridge in London, United Kingdom
The Fulham Railway Bridge spans 418 meters across the River Thames, connecting the boroughs of Hammersmith and Fulham with Wandsworth through metal trusses.
Engineers constructed this railway crossing in the Victorian era, with its official inauguration taking place on June 3, 1889, marking a new chapter in London's transportation.
The bridge represents a dual-purpose infrastructure that reflects London's approach to transportation, combining rail services with pedestrian access along its eastern side.
The structure maintains its original purpose by supporting regular train traffic while providing a dedicated footpath for people crossing between the northern and southern banks.
The bridge retains most of its initial 1889 construction elements, demonstrating the effectiveness of Victorian engineering through continued daily operation after 130 years.
