100 Years old Train Bridge Kalabagh
The Kalabagh Bridge opened in 1931 crossing the River Indus at Kalabagh. The bridge extended the ‘Mari Indus Railway’ which had opened in 1913 and was originally named the Trans Indus (Kalabagh-Bannu) Railway.
The bridge carried a combined road/rail single track narrow gauge 2ft 6in/762mm narrow gauge(NG). At this time the line was renamed the ‘Trans Indus (Mari Indus-Kalabagh-Bannu) Railway.
It would appear the bridge section was abandoned soon after opening and the bridge was used only for road traffic. The road bridge fell into disrepair and was reported as closed before 2009.
