History
The Torisawa Station - Saruhashi Station interval was single line section since the opening of business. The track greatly detoured around a northern coast of Keisen when I left Torisawa Station for the single line era and ran in along Koshu Highway (National highway No. 20) and I crossed Keisen in form to look at Saruhashi known for one of the Japan three strangeness Bridge from the car window in an instant and left for Saruhashi Station. However, this became the big neck on the transport capacity reinforcement. Therefore, in the case of becoming it, the double track of the section abandons a conventional old flight and will realize the speedup that is larger than the former line which was abolished by laying a new line going by way of this new Keisen bridge and Saruhashi tunnel (1,222m in total length).
On September 20, 1968, I offer the double track between Yanagawa Station - Saruhashi Station open with becoming it and start. There is a cross-linked monument on the Torisawa Station side of the bridge, the side of the down line.
Summary of the bridge
Characteristic
Wow, as for the form of Motohashi, a Lent RAS type railway bridge, the west are synthetic figure railway bridges consecutive road elevation the east side. As for the full length of the bridge, 513m (house, truss bridge part 310.0m), the height from the riverbed are 45.4m.
The width of Katsuragawa in itself is not very wide, but I cross it with this bridge at a stretch and enter the direct Saruhashi tunnel at the relations of the topography at the slope of the opposite bank.

The natural bridge is a kind of the formations; a rock of the arch is, and point to the thing which a retainer opens. In many cases, I am formed at the place where hard stratum is piled up on the soft stratum and am thin for a bridge, and the shape that the neighborhood becomes the cliff is formed by erosion. The erosion happens by weathering of the sea, a river or the surface of the earth (English version). The part where in this way has low strength of the rock is "I find it and am" れる.

Name
The thing called a natural bridge in Japanese has two ways of names in English. As for the word equal to "a bridge", arch or bridge is called on in English, but the use is not clear. When it is bridge, in association of American natural bridge (The Natural Arch and Bridge Society), I do the thing that, on the other hand, [1] hangs over the valley made of the erosion with the geology glossary of terms (English) among arch which defines the thing made of the erosion with the water among arch when it is bridge [2].
Thing of the shore
I see it to a natural bridge seen in the shore geologically, and there are two kinds. There is easy to be the shape such as the cave to sharpen the rock that the energy of the wave of the sea is gentle as for (when the direction where the obi of the rock runs is at right angles to the shoreline) earlier when a shoreline is irregular (discordant), and it is a natural bridge in what this penetrates. Australian London arch (English version) is the example. When the shore is alignment (concordant) geologically, it is eroded rapidly a soft layer after it was eroded a firm layer. Of da dollar door (English version) and the ラルウォース kob (English version) in the world heritageJura chic coast of southern part, Dorset, the U.K. throw it away, and a hall (English version) is a model example. When I throw it away, and the erosion of a hall advances and collapses, it is thought that there becomes the shape of the inlet.
Thing caused by the weathering
By the sea and the river, not erosion, pass through the following processes (in other words, by a wave and the current) when is formed by weathering in the land.
A big crack spreads, and the range of sandstones collapses.
Erosion begins in the exposed layer, and a crack thereby gets wide. The part opening thinly of the layer of the sandstone separates.
Because annual temperature change and freezing are exchanged, a small loss occurs in the layer of the sandstone.
Because a small hole grows big by a falling rock and weathering, it becomes the shape of the bridge. As for the part equal to the origin of the bridge, it is eroded by progress of the time, and the bridge collapses sometime soon [3].
The topographical map indicating the position of the natural bridge seen in the prairie wolf gorge (English version) which is the branch of the S calanthe river of Utah, America. A current drills a cliff in the place that the river meanders through, and a place opening a natural bridge in is shown. In other words, it is thought that water level was higher once than the present.
Because a current drills a hole, it may become the shape like a bridge. A current flowing from the swale gives chemical action and makes a deep hole, and it is in the form of the bridge because it penetrates stratum.
The example is seen in the natural bridge quasi-national park (English version) of Utah, America. In addition, in Japan, the male Bridge which is the natural bridge which there was in Higashishirocho of Hiroshima by erosion with the water of the existing river is known [4]. In addition, the male bridge is appointed to a natural monument [5].
Thing by the erosion of the stalactite cave
A natural bridge is formed by the erosion of the stalactite cave. This depends on the erosion of plural dolines advancing, and being connected. There is Rashomon (stalactite cave) in Niimi-shi, Okayama in Japan.
In both cases, erosion action is continuing in the natural bridge and, as a result, I collapse sometime soon or disappears. The above London arch had ever become the double bridge, but one collapsed by stormy weather [6].
The example that is used for traffic
In some natural bridges, a road is laid by the top, and it is really used as a bridge, and two cases are seen in Kentucky, America. A paved road goes along one on the natural bridge of the limestone in Carter caves State Park (English version). In natural bridge State Park (English version), an unpaved road goes on the natural bridge of the sandstone made of the weathering one more and is called the ホワイツ branch arch. The road via this top is called a narrow road.
In addition, there are 60m in length (aerial part 9m), 13m in width, thickness 4m, a natural bridge called Podul lui Dumnezeu (bridge of God) of 20m in height in Rumanian ポノアレレ (English version) village (Ponoarele). Is an example of the natural bridge used practically, but perform reinforcement work for preservation now, and measures to detour around a bridge have its traffic stolen [7]; (as of July, 2011).
The male bridge of Shobara-shi, Hiroshima, Japan was used as a life road until the early days of the Showa era [8].
