This was one of the many railroad bridges in the greater Chicago area that I could not figure out how to get to without angering landowners, police, and railroad companies. HABS HAER, which is a government-sponsored operation, was able to get some closer views of this bridge, so I recommend checking their page for additional photos of this fascinating railroad swing bridge. I got my photos of this bridge from the Cicero Avenue Bridge.
