Le Day Viaduct, Railway bridge in Vallorbe, Switzerland.
The Le Day Viaduct spans the Orbe River with a height of 65 meters and features a main span measuring 44 meters in width.
Built in 1870 by the Jougne-Eclépens Railway, the structure underwent reconstruction between 1923 and 1925 to accommodate increased train weights and electrification requirements.
The viaduct forms part of the rail connection between Paris and Lausanne, linking Switzerland to France through TGV Lyria services.
The double-track bridge carries trains of the RER Vaud network and connects Vallorbe to Le Pont in the Vallée de Joux region.
The reconstruction process maintained operational traffic while replacing the original iron framework with stone arches, incorporating natural stone compatible with existing pillars.
