Couple of my local favorites first up the Lawyer’s Creek Trestle near Grangeville ID.
and the other the long gone S trestle near Wallace Id.
And what happens when a avalanche weakens a bridge and a train drives over it. The S trestle again

Here is a closeup of this UP 4-4-0 camelback…
Original wooden trestle over Two Medicine Creek in Montana, just east of Glacier National Park on the Great Northern Railway, now BNSF. Photo taken in 1900.

That is a way cool trestle Steve.
And that camel back is just very cool.
