Knoxville Road Bridge (abandoned)
Looks like a vehicular bridge to me.
Knoxville Road Bridge (abandoned)
The category "railroad" was added to this bridge history. I am curious what historical evidence exists that supports this category classification? The bridge is a narrow and relatively lightweight design located in a region that is not known for a historical rail route. Further evidence requested.

From topo map, no sign of old RR grade and road alignment is too crooked to be former RR.
