Circa 1971 photo of bridge with Penn Central freight.
3 classic EMD F7's "Covered Wagons" lead a freight past this structure.

That's awesome! Been waiting on this for some time now!
There is a lot of work happening on the US27 bridge, but doesn't look like they are progressing much on the trail bridge.
This bridge:

will be moved here to replace the missing span as they are identical structures, and the remaining span currently will be rebuilt. As of January 2017, the project is currently in the fundraising stage.
Looks like its about to get cleaned up and used again for a trail finally.

This is a really cool project. I wish we would see more of this when railroad trusses are replaced, especially for rail trails. I also love how they managed to rebuild the partially scrapped span at this location as well.
