The Khabarovsk Bridge, originally constructed in 1916 as a single-track structure, serves as a vital crossing for the Trans-Siberian Railway over the Amur River near Khabarovsk, Russia. This historic bridge held the title of being the longest in both Imperial Russia and the Soviet Union for many years, boasting a length of 2,590 meters (8,500 ft).
It serves eastern destinations, including those in the Russian Far East, being the western terminus of the world's longest railway line, the Trans-Siberian. The station takes its name from that of the ancient city of Yaroslavl which, lying 284 rail kilometres (176 miles) north-east of Moscow, is the first large city served by the line.
