train bridge

This train bridge crosses Powells Creeek. It was built around 1930 replacing the one built circa 1865. The earlier one was made of timber limiting train speeds to 20 MPH. The RF&P Railroad replaced it to allow faster train speeds. It's on Bushey Point Trail in Leesylvania State Park. It's a short hike. I think most of the hiking trails in this park are short. #TrainBridge #LeesylvainiaStatePark #bridge #Brücke #pont #ponte #PowellsCreek #creek #Bach
