QUETTA, BOLAN, SIBI: A British-built railway bridge collapsed in Balochistan’s Bolan district after heavy rainfall on Thursday moring. The collapse of the ancient bridge built by English Rulers in 1880s caused the suspension of train service between Balochistan and other parts of the country.
As per the history of the track and railway bridges, work started in 1885 by rapidly laying a rail track in the bed of river Bolan and finally a steam locomotive rolled into Quetta in August of 1886. The present day railway track through Bolan Pass is the third attempt of laying railways through the pass. In 1889 a torrential flood destroyed the track which was first laid on the Bolanl River bed.
All passenger trains were stopped in Quetta and Jacobabad after the collapse of the more than a century old bridge
