    Any idea how long since it's been used Tim?
    Was that a swing bridge?
    It has a geared sprocket at the base of the center span, but the ends don't have any kind of skid plates for alignment, curved ends or look like the are separated for movement.
    Height and design says no, but never under stood the sprocket.
    It's been a long time since it was used I think, an older guy at my marina said people used to go out there and drink...and throw rocks at boats below, until he fired a flare gun up at them

    Found it. In 1982 a derailment damagaed it and was no longer used. It was a swing, but only swung a handful of times.
    I didn't start run'n through there until 84

    Not much. Since it's so shallow beyond that point.
    Looking north northeast from I-80/90 westbound.

    Didn't realize it was so shallow until I was reading about the bridge.

    This one might be a little tougher, so I got the exit sign in as a clue.

When it became an interstate, it ran right through the old barn and farmhouse.
