Bridge On The River Hooghly

Made during Queen Vicoria's Jubilee in 1885, the Jubilee Bridge is still a very important rail link over the Hooghly. It is one of the two railway bridges over the Hooghly (the other being the Vivekananda Setu at Bali) and though it's condition is not very good, a fairly large number of goods and passenger trains ply over it every day. A replacement for this bridge is being built just next to it. Photo taken at Hooghly, West Bengal, India.
