Curve Ball

The Goat Canyon Train Trestle Bridge makes a 14 degree turn over the Goat Cayon in the Carrizo Gorge as it makes its way from east to west amongst San Diego deserts and mountains.

 

A earthquake in 1932 caused a collapse of tunnel 15 and because of that they had to build the new bridge further out into the gorge and curve it towards the new tunnel, make it the largest curved wooden train trestle in the world.
