Kayaked the river last week from Monterey to Tippecanoe River State Park - the bridge is pretty impressive from the water, and was curious to learn more - thanks for the info.
I remember riding the last train out of Monterey and going over this bridge. I also recall the bridge wasn't in that great of shape then either. In fact several planks from the deck were gone and a hole in the bridge. Of course I've heard it had been that way for years, even when the trains still ran on the line.
I'm so looking forward to the day that the trail will be finished to Monterey, IN and the bridge restored to carry trail traffic across. Long live rails to trails.
