Rotterdam Bridge


De brug (The bridge) is a 1928 Dutch documentary short film directed by Joris Ivens. This silent film explores the then-newly constructed Rotterdam vertical-lift railroad bridge: its structure, mechanisms, complex actions, and the steam-powered trains and ships making use of it.

De brug can be found at the Internet Movie Database
De brug is available for free download at the Internet Archive

Today the mainpart of the bridge is carried away for maintenance.
