Photo 8. Facebook posting, July 2015.
Stan Sitzman: If you look to the left, you see what appear to be bricks... Perhaps this is the 'vehicle' bridge to the brick factory with the RR bridge beyond it...?
Those appear to be wood sheathed Burlington Route box cars with the roof walks intact so it's pre-1960s. Definitely NOT the bridge over the RR... The RR runs parallel to it not under it.
