Sadliers Crossing Railway Bridge, Historic railway bridge in Ipswich, Australia.
The Sadliers Crossing Railway Bridge spans the Bremer River with two main spans constructed of riveted double-intersection through Pratt trusses on concrete piers.
Built in 1902 under Chief Engineer Henry Charles Stanley, this bridge replaced an 1875 structure to accommodate increased loads and modern locomotives on Queensland railways.
The structure represents a significant period in Queensland's transportation development, connecting the Darling Downs pastoral region to coastal areas through Ipswich.
The bridge measures 412 feet in length and includes timber trestles for flood management, with a cantilevered pedestrian footbridge providing public access.
This railway bridge stands as the second longest example of Whipple truss design in Queensland, featuring a double track system for Rosewood and Brisbane Valley lines.
