The St. Julian's railway bridge is a crossing of the River Usk in the city of Newport, South Wales in the United Kingdom.
[edit] Welsh Marches Line
It carries the Welsh Marches Line across the river in a north—south direction. Due to the meanderings of the river, all the other crossings are east—west.
[edit] Opened in 1874
The line was originally opened in 1874 by the Pontypool, Caerleon and Newport Railway.
