I've been doing this for a while now it seems. This is one of favorite hobbies, but anyways. I'm J.P. above you will find my photo blog link or where ever it lands on my bio page. Here is a link to my facebook if you would like to discuss stuff. Personally I'm from the Sunny Side of Louisville (southern Indiana), and I'm excited for the opening of the big 4 bridge across the Ohio.

This Tee beam is interesting because of the Brick that is layed into the side of the bridge. Not sure if its decoration or if it actually helps support the structure.

Possible Covered Bridge
Posted April 25, 2017

So while just looking around Indiana, I noticed this Covered Bridge. It could be just a stringer, but it seems almost abandoned and could be an old alignment of Coffee Road. Just wanted to see what everyone else thought before I added the bridge.

I followed the line several directions and added several tunnels and bridges. Some of them were already and active, and it looks like the tracks are still active as they branch off to a major coal plant.

Based on Google Imagery the bridge has been removed, but I figured I would go ahead and add it.

I don't really have time to research which railroad this was, but if you look closely you will see what I believe to be a pratt deck truss.
