Luokou Yellow River Railway Bridge, Railway bridge in Shizhong District, Jinan, China.

The Luokou Yellow River Railway Bridge extends 1,255 meters across the Yellow River with 11 pillars supporting 12 spans and a width of 9.4 meters.

Construction of this railway bridge began in October 1909 and concluded in November 1912, with a total cost of 11.66 million German marks.
