Lohe ka Pul or the iron bridge on the Yamuna dates back to 1863-1866, a 12-spanned wonder of its time whose construction began just a year after Bahadur Shah Zafar’s death, the last Emperor. incidentally, he had opposed the East India Company’s plan for a bridge right behind the Red Fort that would bring trains into the city. It was built for a single railway line but converted into a double line in 1932 and reopened in 1934 because of increased traffic on the Northern Railway.
