Description
The Sandridge Bridge is a historic former railway bridge over the Yarra River in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, which has been redeveloped in 2006 as a new pedestrian and cycle path featuring public art. A bridge was first constructed on the site in 1853.
Below is another shot of mine of the bridge from the opposite angle, and a photo from 1928 showing the bridge (on the diagonal).

Excellent. A real before and after. Is the train yard gone altogether now?

Is the train yard gone altogether now? No Bill. It's still there and is part of the Flinders Street Railway Station.

Nice old bridge enjoying a second life; great shot too! Many of these are quite narrow but your arials show it to be quite wide so it likely had two sets of tracks.
