Tourist train crosses Hanging Bridge at 27:33, and again on the way back at 1:05:50. Tip: Set playback to slow motion for a good look at the bridge structure.

This is an odd bridge! It almost can't be called a bridge as one side doesn't seem to be spanning anything. And I think it's the only pin-connected girder bridge know of. The A-frames are pin-connected and are supporting the girder.
I'd sure like to get a closer look and seem some engineering details.

This bridge is under the famous Royal Gorge Bridge and in my opinion is more interesting than the suspension bridge, from an engineering standpoint.
