During the 2nd world war a very famous battle took place at Arnhem in Holland. 10,000 Allied Paratroop's were dropped to take three bridges over the Rhine. Everyone's heard about the road bridge( A bridge to far), but there were two other bridges, a railway bridge and a pontoon bridge. Both of these were blown up by the Germans. This painting is of the new railway bridge on the same site. Only one span this time instead of the original three.
