This trestle needs a train! This classic train bridge was built in 1931 to replace an earlier one from the late 1800s. Still used by Canadian Pacific Rail trains to cross the Grand River in Paris, Ontario.

Deep in a British Columbia forest is Myra-Bellevue Provincial Park, with one of the longest steel girder bridges of the historic Kettle Valley Railway. Commonly known as the Bellevue Trestle, it's 238 metres (780 ft) long and 67 metres (220 ft) high and is part of the Kettle Valley Rail Trail (Trans Canada Trail). Myra canyon its self is a short 6 kilometres from here with its 2 tunnels and 18 trestle-bridges. The views of Okanagan Lake are spectacular from an elevation of 1280 metres (4200 ft).
The link below is to another trestle in the park that was bypassed shortly after the line was built. I took the picture in 2005 and revisited it in 2022 only to find the forest took ownership of it.

Abandoned train trestle in Yantic, CT. The train went to the Yantic Woolen Mill off to the left. The property had been purchased several years ago and renovation begun to convert the mill to a hotel. The building is made of stone and is quite beautiful, but as is typical, money ran out and all construction stopped. So the building stands nicely renovated but only partially. The chain link fence surrounding the building makes it difficult to get a good shot, but it was a charming, impressive modest sized mill and would make a beautiful hotel if ever completed.

I tried a little panorama editing in Lightroom.
Also known as Wainwright bridge. Beautiful quiet area in smokey Alberta.
