| Remarks & Notes |
| "Double-Meats" lead a heavy train of Heritage equipment northbound over the Bush River Inlet on a windy late winter day. The bridge was designed by Joseph Baermann Strauss and features a single 40-foot steel bascule span that is opened manually by Amtrak crews on weekends during the boating season. The Pennsylvania Steel Co. and the Strauss Bascule & Concrete Bridge Co. of Chicago erected the bridge in 1913 for the Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington Railroad, a PRR subsidiary. |
