If you choose "replaced" instead of "bypassed" it defaults the bridge as lost.

Athens, GA Railroad Bridges
Posted April 13, 2016

I just added 3 railroad bridges to Clarke County, GA. I came across them while visiting Athens. I know nothing about them. I call upon the "Rail Fans" to fill in the blanks please. There are probably more of them in the area worth adding, too. Thank you.

I don't believe that's the 1912 bridge though. The details say it was a swing bridge. I'm assuming it was a through truss.
