Welcome to "Raaz Aur Sach" 🔍✨! How Does Pamban Bridge Open for Ships? | The Amazing Rolling Lift Mechanism #pambanbridge #shorts In this video, discover the remarkable engineering behind the historic Pamban Railway Bridge near Rameswaram, which opened in 1914 and connected the island to mainland India by rail. Its original central span used a Scherzer rolling-lift mechanism that could be raised to allow ships to pass through the navigational channel. Building and maintaining a railway bridge in a marine environment presents major challenges, including saltwater corrosion, strong winds and rough weather. The bridge’s long service history reflects the engineering and maintenance needed to operate in these conditions—not an ability to resist corrosion without deterioration. Let’s explore how this iconic sea bridge worked and why its opening mechanism was such an engineering achievement. pamban bridge, pamban railway bridge, pamban bridge engineering, pamban bridge history, scherzer rolling lift, pamban bridge opening, railway bridge over sea, rameswaram bridge, india first sea bridge, indian railway engineering, sea bridge technology, marine corrosion, pamban bridge facts, tamil nadu tourism, indian engineering marvel #pambanbridge #rameswaram #indianrailways #railwayengineering #engineering #indianhistory #tamilnadu #bridges #science #incredibleindia
