The 6,776 feet bridge connects the town of Rameshwaram on Pamban island to the Indian mainland. The bridge was opened by the British in 1914. The railway bridge is a conventional cantilever bridge with double leaf bascule section in the middle which can be opened to let ships pass through it, a road bridge passes parallel to it. The Rameshwaram sea bridge often features in the top 10 most dangerous railroads in the world. The train speed is limited to 15km/hr on this old bridge.
