FYI. The Railroad Trestle over Weber Creek was converted into the El Dorado Trail Bridge in 2009. This Trestle section of the EDT was completed on November 21, 2009.
I was replying to a note Erik had left in the description field saying that the rail-to-trail category was incorrect because it was a railroad bridge, or something along those lines.
I also silently added the railroad's category so I wouldn't steal his thunder.
The "rail-to-trail" category isn't incorrect, as that category exists on here for railroad bridges that were converted to trail use.
FYI. The original P&SV Railroad Trestle was built in ~1886-1887 of wood. Railroad was completed and opened to Placerville in 1888. Old foundations are still visible under 1903 steel girder bridge (trestle).
