The Indian Railways has started the construction of a vertical bridge in the sea at Pamban, Rameswaram, Tamil Nadu. The construction work of the first pillar of a vertical bridge in the sea in Ramanathapuram district has commenced.
Meanwhile, taking a big leap, Indian Railways has created a history in reducing the transit time of freight trains by joining and running 3 trains together in 'Super Anaconda' formation. The Bilaspur division of SECR broke yet another frontier by joining and running 3 loaded trains (more than 15,000 tonnes of weight) in 'Anaconda' formation through Bilaspur and Chakradharpur divisions. The Railways has also released a video of the three trains.
Prior to this, Railways also shared a video of massive 1.9 km Kosi Mahasetu (Kosi Mega Bridge) in Bihar, fulfilling over a 90-year-old dream of the people.
