Notes
  • Significance: This two-span skewed stone arch bridge was erected in the early 1900s when the Pennsylvania Railroad was reconstructing its main line between Pittsburgh and Harrisburg to accommodate four tracks instead of the existing two tracks. William H. Brown, chief engineer of the Pennsylvania Railroad, supervised this track expansion.
  • Survey number: HAER PA-344
