🌉 Second Narrows Rail Bridge

Canada · Americas · 49.30°N, 123.03°W

The Second Narrows Rail Bridge is a vertical-lift railway bridge that crosses the Burrard Inlet and connects Vancouver with the North Shore. The bridge's south end connects directly to the Thornton Tunnel, which connects it to the main Canadian rail network. The bridge gets its name from being located at the second narrowing (constriction) of the Burrard Inlet, as opposed to the First Narrows to the west that is adjacent to Stanley Park. The Second in the name is not indicative of it being the chronological successor of the original 1925 bridge, and it is not a delineation between the two above-water crossings currently in service at the location.
