| Brunot Island Railroad Bridge | Railroad (Norfolk Southern) Over Ohio River | Pittsburgh: Allegheny County, Pennsylvania | Metal Riveted Pennsylvania Through Truss, Stationary | 1915 By: Unknown |
This impressive bridge is very long as uses Brunot Island to cross the Ohio River. The bridge is one single bridge however and does not end on the island, instead crossing it via a series of riveted Warren deck truss spans. The spans over the river's main and back channels are massive riveted Pennsylvania truss spans. Next to each of these main spans is one deck truss span that is a pin-connected Pratt deck truss, which is unusual since the rest of the bridge features riveted connections. It is unclear why this difference is present, Might they be older, salvaged spans? It remains unclear.
This website currently only features photos for the back channel spans of this bridge. Future visits to Pittsburgh should eventually yield an expansion of this page to include the main channel span.
