Bridge Documentation

This is a somewhat lightweight example of a railway through truss bridge. The railroad bridge consists of three-span 38.1 m (125 ft) Pratt through truss spans. It was built in 1904 by the Dominion Bridge Company of Montreal for the Temiskaming and Northern Ontario Railway. The railway was renamed the Ontario Northland Railway in 1946. The portal bracing on this bridge has been replaced and altered.
