Forsmo Bridge

The Forsmo Bridge (Forsmobron in Swedish; also Forsmo järnvägsbron, the Forsmo railway bridge) is a railway bridge over the Ångerman in Northern Sweden.

It is a riveted steel-truss-arch railway bridge, 263m long and 50m high.

It is located on the Main Line Through Upper Norrland.

[1] In 2002, a study was done to see if the bridge could be upgraded to handle freight trains with a 25 tonne axle load.

It was determined that a total replacement of the upper superstructure with new longitudinal and cross beams will allow for 30 tonne axle loads and give the bridge a service lifetime of 100 years.
