Abstract
India's rail network, the largest in Asia and the second largest in the world, operates under a single management with a track length of 1,15,000 kilometres and no significant upgrades to the connecting railway spans. As time and evolution progressed, railway bridges assumed various forms, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. Railway bridges play a vital role in facilitating communication and transportation between cities throughout the nation. Therefore, they play a significant role in the economic and infrastructure development of a nation. This paper attempts to synthesise the extant research in the subject of railway bridges so that practising engineers and researchers can gain a better understanding. In the near future, with additional refinement, the research may be utilised to assess the dynamic performance of railway structures.
