Per Twitter Russia has run a test train over the bridge after completing some repairs. If true, I am legitimately impressed by the construction of this bridge.
I highly doubt the train used the track that was on the side of the explosion and I highly doubt it was loaded.

Ukraine has now fully consolidated control of the Oskil River south of Kupiansk, and they are still making good progress towards Svatove.
In the Kherson area, there were unconfirmed reports of Ukrainian progress south of Davydiv Brid, along the Imhulets. Hopefully, we'll get confirmation tomorrow of some more Ukrainian flags going up on town halls in that area.

His precious bridge got a dent in it so Putin decides to kill more noncombatants.

If I was living in Crimea
I read somewhere that there are fifty thousand Russian tourists in Crimea now. That doesn't seem like a wise choice. I guess their tourist destinations are limited.

A large-scale explosion damaged the Kerch Strait Bridge that links occupied Crimea with Russia on October 8.

The explosion will not permanently disrupt critical Russian ground lines of communication (GLOCs) to Crimea, but its aftermath is likely to increase friction in Russian logistics for some time.

The Kremlin is likely continuing to frame the Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) as the scapegoat for the Kerch Bridge explosion and other Russian military failures to deflect the blame from Putin

Some nationalist voices noted that Putin and his close circle are failing to immediately address the attack on a symbolic bridge, voicing direct criticism of Putin for the first time

Ukrainian and Russian sources claimed that the Kremlin targeted some higher military command figures following the Kerch Bridge explosion, but these reports remain unverified as of this publication.

The Kremlin named the Russian Commander of the Aerospace Forces, Army General Sergey Surovikin, the new commander of the Russian operation in Ukraine, and this appointment has generated positive feedback within the nationalist community.

And the douche Russian bot BrianKellyRespecter has the audacity to call the Ukrainians terrorists when Russia invaded them and Russia is the one targeting civilians. They are the true terrorists.

Russian occupiers have restored freight and passenger train traffic over the Crimean Bridge which was damaged by an explosion on Saturday morning.
Who issued these videos...? Oh yeah -

Hey I thought the bridge was the redline? I got a one word text when I woke up this morning. “Existential” my conversation should be a good one. Happy first thanksgiving from Canada!

How many trains are moving on a track completely blocked? I see two cranes, one on same rail and another on the other rail.

UPDATE ON UKRAINE 09 October 2022
INTELLIGENCE UPDATE
Early on 08 October 2022, an explosion damaged the Kerch Strait Bridge, the road and rail crossing which links Russian-occupied Crimea and the Krasnodar region of Russia.
Two of the four carriageways of the roadway have collapsed in several places over a length of approximately 250m. It is almost certain that some vehicle transits via the other two carriageways have resumed, but capacity will be seriously degraded.
The extent of damage to the rail crossing is uncertain, but any serious disruption to its capacity will highly likely have a significant impact on Russia's already strained ability to sustain its forces in southern Ukraine. The rail crossing was only opened to freight in June 2020, but the line has played a key role in moving heavy military vehicles to the southern front during the invasion.
This incident will likely touch President Putin closely; it came hours after his 70th birthday, he personally sponsored and opened the bridge, and its construction contractor was his childhood friend Arkady Rotenberg. In recent months, Putin's former bodyguard, now commander of the Russian National Guard, Viktor Zolatov, has provided public assurances about the security of the bridge.

That's fine. Ukraine can just park what we've already provided them so that their standard range sit right on the pre-invasion border.
