•  Comment One of my favourites from China and definitely the luckiest shot. Two freight trains, both hauled by HXD1 locomotives, meet on the Longhai line east of Tianshui.
•  Comment This picture can only convey part of the mind-boggling pace at which the Chinese are building railway infrastructure. These two bridges were probably built in the last 15 years, to replace an old line; and it's not just these two. The whole valley is litterally littered with bridges of this style and size (ok, these are some of the longest). But that's not enough; now they're also building a new high-speed line straight through the mountains on the right!

•  Support Ideally it would be sharper at distance, but what's here and in focus is good enough to not worry about that. Daniel Case (talk) 06:28, 1 December 2015 (UTC)

•  Support very impressive images! but why are they building single track bridges?--ArildV (talk) 16:04, 1 December 2015 (UTC)
  •  Comment I don't know, but I guess that the two bridges were built a few years apart. The track on the right has larger radii throughout, which suggests that it's newer. --Kabelleger (talk) 19:13, 1 December 2015 (UTC)
