River Rouge Canadian National Railroad Bridge Railroad (Canadian National) Over River Rouge Detroit: Wayne County, Michigan Metal Riveted Warren Through Truss, Movable: Bascule 1920 By: Unknown

This is a cool looking through truss bascule rail bridge that is visible from the I-75 Bridge nearby as well as from the Jefferson Avenue Bridge. You can't get close to this bridge unless you have a boat, but either way it looks nice from a distance anyway.
