Yes, Katherine River at Katherine (NT), carrying Stuart Hwy and the original North Australia Railway.
I had crossed by train twice in previous days. This bus ride was Darwin to Alice Springs, connecting with the original Ghan.
When the highway became a WWII supply line, a low-level single-lane concrete bridge & weir was built slightly downstream. It survives, for local traffic.
The decking on the railway bridge was used only when the other was flooded.
My photo was September 1974, which was not wet season.
The railway was closed around 1976.
That bridge has survived as a pedestrian bridge, viewable from the high-level road bridge. IIRC it is 17 m above the river bed. Two recent floods have reached 19 m.
The bridge was built in the mid 1920s, when the railway was being extended southwards. It was designed to carry standard-gauge.
However, when the sg line to Darwin was being built, it used a new bridge further downstream.

I have photos of most of Australia's combined road & rail bridges. Two were demolished before I was a photographer, and a few had lost the railway before I got a photo. One is newer than my most-recent visit to the location.
Enclosed: a photo of one in Brazil.

The usual prize to Gryphon.

Hi,

this is what it looks like these days so it made it a bit tricky to match it to Rodericks picture with the wood deck and the barriers missing.

I recognised the flora out of the right hand side window as being top end, NT or WA, so it was just a case of searching google for images of road rail bridges in the top end some where.

4 days. Are you having trouble finding a photo?
I have two on standby, but anyone can grab a Google Earth view, crop and post.
Roderick

you can put something up if you like....

To keep the pace up, have the easier of my two standby photos.
Most of my road-landmark photos will be pubs or bridges; photos with other clues aren't scanned.

I picked this one because many members will have driven past it.
