This paper presents results of fatigue tests for corroded steel plates. The test specimens with various degrees of corrosion were taken from an old bridge which had been used for over fifty years (the Tenryu truss bridge). It also deals with an attempt to predict the remaining fatigue life of steel railway bridges. For this purpose the author conducted fatigue tests of a steel railway bridge, which had been long in use and compared the test result with the analytical one. For the covering abstract of the conference see IRRD 858334. The French title of this paper is:- Resistance a la fatigue de toles en acier corrodees d'un vieux pont de chemin de fer. The German title of this paper is:- Ermuedungsfestigkeit korrodierter Stahlbleche einer alten Eisenbahnbruecke.
