Spring St. Bridge here in Torrington, Ct. Built by the King Bridge Co. of Cleveland OH in 1903 for the New Haven Railroad.

Ooooooh, I'm loving those pictures guys. RailOhio, I had to go figure out what Piqua was. Dr. Wayne, I love that second shot up from the bottom!
This one was taken near Williams, AZ with the sun in exactly the wrong position...

You know, I "found" that bridge at the perfect sun angle, and never got a train until it was too late...

Re: Bridges, bridges everywhere! - TrainNut - 11-16-2009

We go camping up in that area a lot and so we go back and forth underneath that bridge several times a day between the camping ground and Williams. It was only a matter of time before I was able to capture the shot with an engine on top. Tricky part there was that the engines are still carrying quite a bit of speed before they get bogged down on the grade and my digital camera has got a pretty good lag from the time you push the button till the time it actually takes the picture. A bit of luck was necessary to get the shot. Icon_lol

Do the bridges in this thread necessarily have to be railroad related?

Re: Bridges, bridges everywhere! - TrainNut - 11-17-2009

I guess they should be since it's a train site... however,
I'm open to it and it's my thread so if you've got some, let's see 'em!
Besides, I've also got some that aren't that I was wanting to share but hadn't yet.

Re: Bridges, bridges everywhere! - railohio - 11-17-2009

So how about some railroad photos taken from bridges?

I can actually submit a few of those too.

I have a few pictures that I took at Meadowdale International Raceway recently, of an old bridge which is now just exposed beams. For the 99.9% of you out there who have never heard of it:
http://meadowdaleraceway.homestead.com/ and http://forums.autosport.com/index.php?showtopic=114792&st=0. Actually, you can see my pictures in that last link, on page 2 under the screen name SaturnVUEguy
