Yeah, I just noticed that last night at work. Too busy to do anything about it at the time.

This is not the right page for the bridge in the photograph. I looked for a pinned Pratt pony truss for Madison County in SHAARD and found none, which would suggest this bridge was replaced prior to the mid 1980's. I will have to do a little research and see if I can find out more.

This page is for a concrete arch bridge.

Thanks Dolores. I cropped it and incorporated it into the bridge file. (With your name as the photographer, of course.)

I have a picture of this bridge. Grew up right next to it at the top of the hill in Ingalls. I did have two pictures, but over the years have lost or misplaced the other one. Attaching the one I have.
