#90: Opened to rail traffic in 1888, the decorative ornamentation of the Sandridge Rail Bridge made it a key feature of early Melbournian architecture. For almost 15 years, the bridge has been unused. The significance of the Sandridge port and its rail link into Melbourne lasted well into the twentieth century, until the line was eventually replaced by a light rail service in 1987.
