A view from the viaduct showing the line to Dhulghat passing below. The concrete pillars have the marking "CCN, RL-BF, RL-TF, M, R" - similar markings are found on an old abandoned bridge of the MG alignment near Pune. We need comments from bridge experts to interpret these markings.

CCN - Cement Concrete (The type of foundation)
RL-BF - Height from Rail Level to Bottom of Foundation
RL-TF - Height from Rail Level to Top of Foundation (Both of these should have been etched on the concrete but are not)
