ICG GP10 8237 crosses the Bogue Falaya with the northward Shore Line District local. The interesting bridge girder was built by the Edgemoor Iron Works of Wilmington, Delaware in 1888, when the East Louisiana Railroad constructed this line into Covington. The trestle shows evidence of the upgrading received by the entire branch in 1980; but despite this investment, the line was abandoned just ten years after this photo was taken. |
