About The Guillemard Bridge

The Guillemard Bridge is a solitary track railroad bracket connect situated in Kusial, in the territory of Kelantan, Malaysia. It is two of the most seasoned railroad connects in the nation after Victoria Bridge in Perak. The scaffold was built between May 1920 and July 1924 by The Metro Carriage Wagon and Finance Co. Ltd situated in Wednesbury, England as a traverse the Kelantan River. The extension was authoritatively opened on 1925 by the late Almarhum Sultan Muhammad IV of Kelantan and was named after the British Governor for the Straits Settlements, Sir Laurence Guillemard 1920 - 1927.

The 600m extension, said to be the longest railroad connect in the nation, is an innovative wonder is as yet remaining steadfast after about a century. The solid, dark strong steel connect has a history worth telling. In December 1941, toward the beginning of the World War II in Malaya, the British powers withdrawing south to Kuala Krai, decimated the last range of the extension to keep the Imperial Japanese Army progressing. It stayed closed to activity until the point when it was recreated and revived to movement on 7 September 1948. You can come here with your family and friends to visit this place.
