Anderson Bridge also known as the Bhairab Bridge is a 1 km long railway bridge over the Meghna River, connecting Bhairab Bazar Junction in Kishoreganj District with Ashuganj in Brahmanbaria District.
The bridge carries a single metre-gauge rail track.
In 1950, it was an important rail link connecting Dhaka and Mymensingh districts on the west with Sylhet, Comilla and Chittagong districts in the east.
[1] On 12 February, most of the Hindu passengers travelling on this train route were murdered.
The assailants would pick out the Hindus one by one, force them out of the compartment, slit their throats and throw their corpses into the river.
