Description
Photograph of train trestle crossing a ravine, ca.1900. At center, a large bridge and support system can be seen over a wide ravine. The upper structure is composed of several vertical, horizontal, and slanted bars which create a frame over the train track. Two of these frames are seen over the track in the foreground, and three frames are visible on the track in the background. Below the two tracks, several bars and thick columns can be seen holding the structure. To the right, a small house with several windows can be seen below the bridge. In the extreme foreground, various vegetation and shrubbery is visible. In the extreme background to the right, utility poles and buildings can be seen.
