| Additional Information: | Surveyed 2020 by HRL for an Amtrak project.... Likely dating to the circa 1930s or 1940s, the tracks on this single-span, post-and-beam bridge that crosses an unnamed water-course are carried by steel girders beneath that extend from abutment to abutment, both of which are of concrete. A pedestrian walkway and railing are situated on the south side of the structure and carried by nominal "I" beams, seven of which are fixed on and project from the bridge structure itself. An additional railing post is found at each end of the bridge, beyond the waterway, thus bringing the total number of posts to nine. |
