Triumphal Arch on the Alexandra Railway Bridge at Wuzeerabad...1876. Creator: Unknown.

Triumphal Arch on the Alexandra Railway Bridge at Wuzeerabad, from a sketch by one of our special artists,  1876. 'The Prince [of Wales, future King Edward VII) was accompanied by some of the Maharajah's courtiers and nobles...proceeded to Wuzeerabad [Wazirabad], where the Prince was to perform the ceremony of completing and opening the "Alexandra" bridge of the Punjaub Northern State Railway.
