Pier

The concrete pier is topped with small, mismatched I-beams that support the larger beams. This bridge has "low-budget" written all over it.

Possible replacement

Lying near the bridge are the chassis of two railroad cars. It appears this bridge will soon be replaced with these large recycled pieces of metal. So even the replacement has "low-budget" written all over it.
