- Hawthorn_Railway_Bridge abstract "Hawthorn Railway Bridge crosses the Yarra River five kilometres east of Melbourne connecting Richmond railway station, Melbourne and Hawthorn Station on the Alamein, Belgrave and Lilydale Railway Lines. It is built for the Melbourne and Suburban Railway Company and is the oldest extant railway bridge over the Yarra River.Completed in 1861, Hawthorn Railway Bridge was designed by Francis Bell. With a span of about 60 metres (200 ft), it was one of the last major items of permanent way to be built on the fledgling railway. The contractors were George Cornwell and Co. Cornwell had previously been involved as contractor in many other major construction works including the Melbourne Grammar School, the Model School, Coppin’s Haymarket Theatre, the Sunbury railway goods shed and other Melbourne and Suburban Railway works. Subsequently he was a contractor on Parliament House, Albert Park Station, Jack’s Magazine and the Wallaby Creek water supply. It is likely that Kennedy Smith was involved in the design, but was perhaps out of his depth. He ordered trusses which were inadequate for the job, and had to shorten them, suggesting he did not understand the design. The opening of the bridge on 13 April 1861 allowed the Melbourne and Suburban Railway Company to extend its line from Pic Nic railway station (east of Burnley) to Hawthorn. The earliest views of the bridge show it to consist of a deck lattice girder with five intersects. The main span over the river was flanked by segmental stone arch spans on either side.The bridge was duplicated in 1882 by the Railways Construction Branch, and minor works to the bearings and girder ends were made in 1887-8 to lower the levels of its girders by 6 in (150 mm). A new double-track bridge using large double Warren trusses was built on its north side in 1912.The bridge was extended westwards in 1938-39 when a new span was added to cross the Yarra Boulevard, which was constructed as a scenic drive by sustenance workers in the Depression. In 1971, the original piers were strengthened and the bridge widened to take a third track.".
