English: First modern bridge at Wuhan, China, crossing the Chang Jiang (Yangtze) river:
This was the first modern river crossing at this location and is still known as "The First Bridge". It was built under the direction of Russian engineers using Chinese materials and construction crews. Before this was available, railroad trains would be barged across the river, taking up to an entire day to cross. This bridge carries two tracks of railroad below and four lanes of vehicular traffic above and joins Snake Hill with its Yellow Crane Tower on the South to Turtle Hill on the North, here to our right.
Deutsch: Erste moderne Brücke über den Jangtsekiang in Wuhan. Sie wurde unter der Leitung russischer Ingenieure mit chinesischen Materialien und von chinesischen Arbeitstrupps erbaut. Vor Errichtung der Brücke wurde Eisenbahnzüge per Fähre über den Fluss transportiert, was bis zu einem ganzen Tag pro Zug in Anspruch nehmen konnte. Die Brücke führt auf der unteren Etage zwei Eisenbahngleise und auf der oberen Etage vier Fahrbahnen. Sie verbindet den Schlangenhügel am Südufer mit ihrem gelben Kranturm mit dem Schildkrötenhügel am Nordufer, im Bild rechts. |
