There was some littlo delay due to A short section of about seven miles in the second division, at the Goteik Gorg fifty miles by road beyond Maymyo, having to be re-aligned. At this cressing of the gorge there is a large natural bridge 300 feet above the bed of the stream, and the cld alignment of the railway crossed the gorge, by a bridge 1,000 feet long at a height of 210 feet above the natural bridge. But the gradients of the old alignment were 1 in 20, which is steeper than anything in the Empire, not excepting the old Belan railway which was 1 in 27 Tho new alignment crasses the gorge at the same spot by a bridge 2,000 fost long, 100 feet higher than that provided in the old estimate, which reduces the gradie ents to 1 in 60 on murresand 1 in 40 on the
