MUMBAI: One of the last iron screw piles on Indian Railways will soon become history. Bridge number 20 over Mithi river in Bandra, which has been holding the rail tracks together since 1888, will be replaced by a cement concrete girder. The bridge came up around the same time that Bandra railway station was taking shape.

There are eight pillars, two on each rail line, underneath the rail tracks on Slow and Fast lines going towards Churchgate and Virar. Each pillar is made of cast iron, weighing 8-10 tonne, and go down to a depth of 15-20 metres, hitting the bedrock of Mithi River.
