About
The Beipan River Shuibai Railway Bridge in China was the world's highest railway bridge for 15 years, from 2001 to 2016. The bridge spans a deep canyon on the Beipan River near the city of Liupanshui in Guizhou province, China. The arch bridge, with a maximum height of 275 metres and a span width of 236 metres, was built in 2001 with the construction of the Liupanshui–Baiguo railway. Here, the train runs on its highest speed.
